Statically linked binaries could create problems, if they're not recompiled against the new glibc. This is purely theoretical however, I've not had the time to look at your problem. More to the point, you're now talking about SKAS0. And for i686 and plain athlon-xp, the crash is known, as not even modify_ldt() works there (we're fixing that). And modify_ldt() works in any other mode, and is probably used even --without-TLS (because errno is anyway thread-local). Btw, Slackware up-to 10.1 works without problem on x86_64 hosts in SKAS3 mode (already said?) and Slackware 10.2 works on i386 hosts even with TLS (due to usage of glibc 2.3.5, I think). -- Inform me of my mistakes, so I can keep imitating Homer Simpson's "Doh!".
