update:
After extensive testing of about 10 system I have narrowed down the
problem (not by much) to the glibc-2.3.1 to glibc-2.3.2 upgrade.
This affects gentoo and redhat phoebe 3.
Using gcc-3.2.2 with redhat patches (or without) and rpm gcc-3.2.1-7
binutils-2.13.90.0.18 from source and rpm binutils-2.13.90.0.18-6
And the package sparking the problem:
with glibc-2.3.1 from source ld works fine.
glibc-2.3.2 from source and glibc-2.3.1-46 from redhat phoebe 3 causes
ld to segfault as described before.
redhat phoebe 3 and my gentoo systems both produce the same gdb stack
trace on segfault.
Any more information needed?
Hope this helps.
