I got the new gcc to build (3.0.2 cvs 20010922) and tried glibc again... it dies
similarly while trying to run ld.so ...

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
_dl_debug_vdprintf (fd=0, tag_p=0, 
    fmt=0x17cdc <Address 0x17cdc out of bounds>, arg=0xbff005d8)
    at dl-misc.c:101
101       while (*fmt != '\0')
(gdb) bt

I'll try to debug it some more tomorrow.

BenC (debian's glibc maintainer) also claims that the hppa patch in
glibc breaks linuxthreads (runtime) on other architectures. Does anyone 
know anything about this?
