I'm wondering what it will take to get this corrected. I've corrected it in
my copy, except for the non-standard functions which don't get used. I'd be
glad to correct and test them if that would further the cause, but we're off
topic in an area which is more glibc than gcc. It's a little difficult to
sell linux and gcc as reliable software when the most often used library
continues to carry these known bugs, and no one can agree about fixing them.
