OK, so RedHat has done with glibc in 8.0 essentially what they did with gcc in 7.0. That is, taken a chunk of the development version and making a RedHat release of it. From the release notes: o The GNU C Library (glibc) has been updated to version 2.3 code base and includes

In an ongoing effort to see how badly I can hose my system and *still* have things (mostly) work, I attempted an update of binutils last night (from 2.10 that came with Caldera, to 2.13 from source). Much to my surprise, it seemed to compile and install without error. But, after issuing an
