It appears that the problem here is caused by dso_handle.os being omitted from the reduced libc. This leaves __dso_handle as an undefined weak reference. Unfortunately, for a shared build, glibc assumes that this symbol will always be available and elides the check for its existence in thread_atfork(). Consequently, the reduced libc blows up with a null dereference in ptmalloc_init.
I added a hack to mklibs 0.1.12 to force the inclusion of this symbol in the reduced libc.so, which seems to be enough to get debian-installer working again. p. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
