Problematic linking between glibc and shared libgcc

[Franz Sirl]

Hi,

yesterday I built a glibc-2.2.2 RPM with gcc-3_0-branch, tested and installed 
it, all was fine. Then I rebooted and my system didn't come up again, 
complaining about a missing libgcc_s.so.0.

The problem is that / and /usr are on different partitions (yes, I know this 
is a silly setup with todays HD sizes, but a lot of systems out there are 
configured this way) and libgcc_s.so.0 is not available directly after boot. 
So I guess we have to install the shared libgcc into /lib on native glibc 
systems when the given prefix is /usr?

Opinions?

Franz.
