eglibc testing?

[Phil Blundell <pb@pbcl.net>]

I just ran "make check" under qemu on my eglibc-2.13 build (from oe-core
master) and got rather a lot of failures.  It wasn't immediately obvious
to me whether these were libc bugs, qemu infelicities, oe-related
harness problems, or some kind of local finger trouble.

Before I spend too much time investigating this, are other people seeing
the same effect?  What approach do the Yocto folks use for glibc
testing: are they running the testsuite directly on target hardware, or
via qemu, or something else?

The gcc testsuite is next on my list to look at and, again, I'd be
interested to hear what approach other folks are using there and what
sort of results they are currently getting.

thanks
