Any glibc since introduction of preadv/pwritev can corrupt data on 32bit
systems when a program is compiled with -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64. This is most
important for qemu/kvm for which this system call was introduces, leading to
massive data

We have new enough GCC now, and new glibc. Is this fixed in the current
glibc version in unstable?
glibc in sid doesn't seem to provide NTPL yet on ppc.

Both are wrong. Use sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE) instead.

2.3.2-2 is not glibc 2.3.2 but more like current CVS. Does it work
