Public bug reported:
As of after updates at 2009-09-13 ca. 16:00, Xorg and anything using GLX (eg.
glxinfo) crashes on startup.
The only thing that seems to have been changed then is the upgrade of libc6 to
2.10.1-0ubuntu11.
Log of crashing Xorg run is attached. The corresponding gdb backtrace is:
$ gdb /usr/bin/Xorg CoreDump

Glxinfo backtrace looks like this:
$ unset DISPLAY
$ gdb glxinfo
...
(gdb) run

Note that it crashes at a very early stage, not probably even contacting
X server yet (since DISPLAY is unset).
