No, it's more likely to be a bug elsewhere,
perhaps in your code.  You should use
valgrind; it might help point out the problem.
http://valgrind.kde.org

Now, glibc-2.3.2 does have a number of things
that show up as problems in valgrind, but
usually they're benign, so you can ignore them.
If valgrind finds anything wrong in your code,
though, it's probably worth fixing.
