Follow-up Comment #1, sr #104988 (project administration): Well that is what you get for hitting RET a bit to early... Sorry for that. Anyawy, the problem is that the CVS mirror of glibc here on Savannah isn't being updated any more, since 2005-12-15, and I suspect that this has something to do

Follow-up Comment #3, sr #104988 (project administration): GLIBC hasn't moved to SVN, nor has binutils. Only GCC has moved to SVN to my knowledge (and I'm trying to come up with some solution that would make it possible to mirror the GCC tree without a huge CPU load). __
