glibc2 & (de)register_frame_info




When I compile glibc 2.0.{6,7} with egcs, glibc ends up defining
the symbols __register_frame_info & __deregister_frame_info. I noticed
that these are also defined in egcs' libgcc.a  Should this be happening? 

The real problem happens when I upgrade to a glibc that was not built with
egcs.  Some of the programs I compiled with egcs under a egcs built glibc
also have a dependency on these symbols.  If it wasn't /bin/login, I might
not have cared so much. :-/

I have a box at home running RedHat's glibc 2.0.7-7 rpm and one at work
running glibc 2.0.6 compiled with egcs 1.0.1 (maybe 1.0.2).  Both boxes
have egcs 1.0.3a installed.  I recompiled the util-linux 2.7-15 srpm on
both boxes.  At work, __register_frame_info turns up when I strings
/bin/login.  At home, it does not.
