Interesting results. I haven't checked the detail of your glibc
against what I logged for ppc64 in the "clfs-1.1.0" ticket, but some
of it certainly had a familiar feel to it.
I've just uploaded my pure64 and powerpc64 patches for 4.2.4
(pure64 had rejections, as did powerpc64 - the new pure64 works on
x86_64-64, I haven't had time to start testing ppc64 (multilib) yet).
Fingers crossed for your 2.6.24.7.

Ahoy Ken,
2.6.24 kernel series are a no go for my machine. Framebuffer gets
garbled and only a few audio plays with aplay, unlike most all of them
that are a valid format do in 2.6.25.7 or 2.6.23.1. Prom console works
okay though. Something in the 2.6.24 kernel is messing with the audio
and framebuffer ( I use permedia2 ) and the audio is the crystal audio
device that comes with the Ultras.
I've asked Aaediwen to see what happens when he uses it with his Ultra
60. He uses a UPA device (Elite3D) and am curious to see what happens.
His audio isn't working for some reason. So I guess he can't test that
part.
I've got people asking me about 2.6.25 headers, no clue on it as I
haven't touched them.
Anyways, I think if 2.6.24.7 headers work, a note in the book about
using the 2.6.24 series kernels with sparc might be needed heh. It's
not usable with my machine for sure, even with a defconfig.
Also I have this with a 2.6.24 series kernel as well:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x3f90c): Section mismatch: reference
to .init.text:sun4v_ktsb_register (between 'smp_callin' and
'smp_fill_in_sib_core_maps')

Looking around the LKML showed a few things, just saw comments saying
it was bogus and people try this, and people giving up, etc.
