FWIW, I recently tried building glibc-2.5-11 but it has a problem with semaphore.h that appears to be linuxthreads related. I was able to fix the build but that header was omitted from the installation, causing userspace breakage. I never resolved that, and I don't know whether glibc 2.5 is adequate for Debian 5.0. I know precious little about glibc hacking and I'm still working on drivers so I gave up on it. The gentoo portage tree has: glibc-2.2.5-r10.ebuild glibc-2.3.2-r12.ebuild glibc-2.3.5-r3.ebuild glibc-2.3.6-r4.ebuild glibc-2.3.6-r5.ebuild glibc-2.4-r4.ebuild glibc-2.5-r2.ebuild glibc-2.5-r3.ebuild glibc-2.5-r4.ebuild glibc-2.5.1.ebuild glibc-2.6.ebuild glibc-2.6.1.ebuild Has anyone tried these ebuilds on m68k? Maybe they have patches. -f
