I reported elsewhere that version 2.3.999.2-11 (glibc-2.4) seems to work

for some reason people require glibc-2.3, they will have to retrieve the
sources for the stable package and apply the appropriate workaround patch
(for the defunct processes issue).
I'm really just shooting for the "out of box" experience with Etch on
Alphs to be "stable".
I know (and use) the newer versions of glibc - I would just rather that
people *choose*
to use a newer version instead of being required to get something from
testing or unstable.
(and some organizations might have a "stable"-only policy).
