As PeteM and others have discovered, upgrading your hppa box currently breaks 
a *lot*.

We are recommending that you DO NOT APT-GET UPGRADE until we find the problem 
and get it fixed. Someone will send an all-clear once it's safe to do so.

We think the latest hppa libc in Debian (2.2.4-3) is to blame but we don't 
know for sure yet.

Stay tuned....

Even stranger.....

I downgraded apache from 1.3.22-2 to 1.3.20-1.1 & I now have a functioning
apache.

Now my box is happy but my mind is still a little confused.

Every program that is linked agains gtk+ segfaults, no matter if it uses
gtk or not. It seems to be a linker problem.

2.2.4-4 fixes that problem. python however is still broken.

We still don't know the extent of the problem and until known working
binutils/gcc/glibc are uploaded I think you should hold off. I'm hoping the
patch that Alan Modra posted earlier is the answer. I'm rebuilding the
toolchain now.

Stay tuned...
