This fix is for 2.2.5-11.2, but it's stable release, so it's difficult to fix with your patch because it's not critical bug. glibc 2.3.1-16 is already fixed, so use or develop with 2.3.1-16. All I can do is to tag as "wontfix, woody" for this bug... So I intent to close this bug, is it OK? Regards, -- gotom -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
