Not a dselect upgrade doing multiple things at once - JUST libc6.
Somewhere in the past few versions we changed our minds about
__register_frame_info again, and when that happened, libraries began
depending on the new libc6. I'd really like to know if anyone knows
when/how this happened. It's certainly a problem from 2.1-3 to
2.1.1-0pre1.3.
It's egcs, this bit sparc too. egcs 1.1.2 has a weak symbols in
libgcc patch, this makes __*register_frame_info weak symbols.
Debian/sparc has backed this out of their egcs.
Jeff Law has suggested on the egcs list that he believes that patch
was a bad idea, even going so far as to consider a 1.1.3 release just
to back it out.
