Thanks for the excellent analysis.  I concur.

Agreed.  We also need to keep in mind that this only effects those sites
which still run the glibc2 beta releases 1.95-1.99 if I understood Ulrich.

So, while it sucks that we're incompatible, I don't see that we should 
install compatability hacks to deal with these outdated versions of glibc
that were built with incorrectly patched versions of gcc.

So, we agree on both core issues -- this is not an egcs bug and we should
not do anything to egcs to "fix" this problem.
