Hi For example i hear that native posix threads has portions of it implemented in kernel and also requires glibc support. In such cases if i attempt to run an application compiled with gcc-4 on a linux-2.4 kernel, wont there be problems?? With changes in binutils, would there be changes in the basic elf format itself?? in such case wouldn't the kernel need to know about this?
