Interesting. I'm tempted to ask how you discovered this, but since glibc scares me to death at the best of times, I wont ;-) Do you have a way of either altering the build (for testing builds) to remove the timestamp, or do you have a way of breaking out the archive contents to compare them ? Last time I looked, google knew nothing about it, and 'file' still thinks it's some sort of PDP-11 thing. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
