Agreed. I've had mixed reports from folks over in the Gentoo universe

Hey Scott.
That page is pretty outdated. AFAIK we haven't been experiencing glibc
problems with 4.0 since prerelease. Plus it mentions binutils
2.16.90.0.1 which was booted from the tree very quickly due to an
annoying --as-needed bug[1].
PS - Swing by the forum[2] if you get a chance. ;P
(Interestingly, the fixes in glibc-cvs seem to have been made in such a
way that the new glibc won't be compilable by older versions of gcc, like gcc-3.4.4.
I guess the thinking is that everyone should be using the latest gcc?)

Hmm, do you have a source for any more info? I want to take a look at this.
