Please resend your bugs, I can't decode either with Linux/pine/tar nor
Win/Eudora/Winzip. I think it's corrupted.

Have you already tried the egcs-1.0 patches from Geoff
< http://discus.anu.edu.au/~geoffk >? If I compile and check on my glibc-2.1
(2.0.91) system, I get one test/compile regression with the patches, but
less (of the very seldom) segfaults. egcs-1.0.1+patch compiles glibc-2.1
just fine for me, I only had to add the following lines for
linuxthreads/condvar.c to configparms:
CFLAGS-condvar.o  += -fno-inline
CFLAGS-condvar.os += -fno-inline
CFLAGS-condvar.op += -fno-inline

Currently I can't bootstrap unpatched 971225 on glibc-2.1 (reported here
earlier).

Bye,
Franz.
