That does not explain why reverting to baselayout 1.11.15 allows the system to work! Also, for me, at least, this only occurs with reiser4 as root, not reiser3. You may be correct about glibc-2.4 but the timing is inconsistent. I upgraded to 2.4 on 9/1, but did not see the problem until the baselayout incremented. Did you actually try downgrading your glibc and if so, did the problem go away? Would you please add your observation to the bug report?
