Hi m68k and Hurd porters,
You were previously made aware[0] that glibc-2.6 needs TLS to be implemented for your ports to build and work properly, sadly this is still not the case for m68k, and insufficient for Hurd in the current state. We want to release lenny with glibc 2.6 (see discussion with the Release Team in [1]), and it has been released upstream yesterday. We don't plan an upload to unstable immediately, we already have to make glibc 2.5 reach lenny first. Though, we hope to make the first uploads during DebConf. Bringing a new glibc upstream into Debian is a lot of work, and waiting for m68k and Hurd to support TLS properly is sadly not an option we can consider.
