It's not about /usr/include/asm/resource.h, it's about
/usr/include/asm/unistd.h, where the syscall numbers are defined.
This is presumably what the "#ifdef __NR_ugetrlimit" in
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/getrlimit.c is meant to be testing against --
nothing in the glibc-2.2.5 distribution itself defines that symbol. Surely a
Linux glibc doesn't compile without the target system's linux/* and asm/*
headers?
2.4's /usr/include/asm/unistd.h defines __NR_ugetrlimit but 2.2's doesn't.

I see. I think glibc should either require 2.4 header files under
<asm/*.h> and <linux/*.h>, or define __NR_ugetrlimit if it is not
defined.

Just require 2.4 kernel headers if you want to work under a 2.4 kernel.
It may not have been documented/enforced, but I believe this was
already true.

To take the advantage of 2.4, it should be yes. But to run correctly
under 2.4, the answer should no. On the other hand, I agree it is more
a kernel problem than a glibc problem since the older glibc binaries
won't work correctly under 2.4.
