Fixing "buggy" LT apps should be relatively easy, if they are buggy due to

I started with 2.6.0 mm (SMP + Preempt seems to work fine so far ;-).
Do you think that's OK?

In a few words. Everything in your system depends on glibc. Normally,
one should emerge world if glibc is updated.
IOW, it means that all utilities/programs use glibc (the DL version)

Hi!

I was probably getting tired yesterday in searching accross the web..
I missed the "Portage Manual" (I read the Portage User Guide, though).
Your mail invited me to look at the gentoo.org more closely.
Thanks!
