I've bumped kernel-headers 2.6.27.6-2, binutils 2.19-1, glibc 2.9-1 and rebuilt gcc-libc/gcc,gcc-gcj. I also fixed valgrind for new glibc. Please test them all carefully. We usually run into some upstream issues here. Especially new glibc:
"There is one known potential problem with the name resolving which has been extensively changed. Under some circumstance (always involving broken servers) requests are not completely processed. Often a second call fixes the problem. This might be fixed in the latest code, maybe not. Unfortunately no reported has been able or willing to provide the information needed to track down the problem." Take your time. If you think they work find give me some signoffs. -Andy Changelogs glibc: Anyway, the user-visible change for this release include: * Unified lookup for getaddrinfo: IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are now looked up at the same time. Implemented by Ulrich Drepper. * TLS descriptors for LD and GD on x86 and x86-64. Implemented by Alexandre Oliva. * getaddrinfo now handles DCCP and UDPlite. Implemented by Ulrich Drepper. * New fixed-size conversion macros: htobe16, htole16, be16toh, le16toh, htobe32, htole32, be32toh, le32toh, htobe64, htole64, be64toh, le64toh. Implemented by Ulrich Drepper. * New implementation of memmem, strstr, and strcasestr which is O(n). Implemented by Eric Blake. * New Linux interfaces: inotify_init1, dup3, epoll_create1, pipe2 * Implement "e" option for popen to open file descriptor with the close-on-exec flag set. Implemented by Ulrich Drepper. * Implement "b" mode for fmemopen. In this mode writes writes don't implicitly add a NUL byte and seeks from the end of the buffer really use the buffer end, not the string length as the basis. Implemented by Ulrich Drepper. * Many functions, exported and internal, now atomically set the close-on-exec flag when run on a sufficiently new kernel. Implemented by Ulrich Drepper. * Sorting rules for some Indian languages (Kannada, Gurumukhi, Telugu, Sinhala) Implemented by Pravin Satpute. * New locales: sd_IN, [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], ht_HT, en_AG, nl_AW. Changelog binutils: Changes in 2.19: * Added -wL switch to dump decoded contents of .debug_line. * Added support for "thin" archives which contain pathnames pointing to object files rather than the files themselves and which contain a flattened symbol index for all objects, and archives, which have been added to the archive. * Added -F switch to objdump to include file offsets in the disassembly. * Added -c switch to readelf to allow string dumps of archive symbol index. * Support for SSE5 has been added to the i386 port. * Added -p switch to readelf to allow string dumps of sections.
