I was using mrproper, but I've scripted the whole thing to test all the
combinations from scratch again (with a brand new tree each time - not
just mrproper) and the error only occurs when using the hardened gcc,
and I'm not too bothered about that (it's easy enough to switch, except
in SELinux enforcing mode - but that's another matter...)
So I guess that the patch is good enough as it is.
It is available here:
http://uml.nagafix.co.uk/uml-2.4.32-bs2.patch.bz2
it cumulates:
* 2.4.28-bs2
* offsets for 2.4.32 and removed the whitespace no-change in
drivers/char/tty_io.c.rej
* tiny patch (attached) for tt/Makefile to cope with duplicate symbols
in newer glibc
(done properly this time)
* mconsole-exec patch backported to 2.4:
http://uml.nagafix.co.uk/mconsole-exec.patch-2.4.bz2
(unlike in 2.6 there is no config option for it)

Same here. I wish it could tell me which ones so I could place them in
the chroot without guessing or tracing it (we have discussed this a
while back)
So in this case, on a multilib amd64 system, I should be able to build a
chroot using a bind mount to preserve /lib32 and /usr/lib32 to guarantee
that the libs are exactly the same? (and add a 32bit bash, gcc, make...)

Sure, I meant just the diffs with 2.4.28-bs2!
