Dear Andreas,
dear listmembers,
I found the reason for the failure - without the ability to explain. For the 
building process I was using a special rpmrc without the "-g" option because 
this is needed IMHO for building the kernel based on the suse packaging 
concept. 
This missing "-g" screwed things up for glibc. If I leave "-g" in all tests 
(besides the floating point issue) pass smoothly, the tst-signal1 as well.

If someone has an explanation, I'd be more than happy to understand :-)
By the way: upgrading is not fun. New releases come with new bugs - I cannot 
cope with bug hunting on my main system, I needed a compiler that works 
better than the one I had had before. 
Everything beyond that like making linux-2.6.11 compile and run with gcc 4.1.2 
is work, but can be decouplded from the system operation.

As long as programs get shipped without having ever been run only once (10.2: 
xcdroast is a mess; texmacs was a mess ...) the degree of fun with upgrades 
is very limited.

Thanks a lot for your feedback,
take care



Dieter
