Hi,

Seemed to work just fine on an IBM PowerPC (power5) running 
SLES9 (SuSE/Novell Linux Enterprise Server version 9) 
and 
RHEL4 (Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 4), 
as below:

================================================
The SLES9 machine:

RPM files: rpm -qa |grep glibc

gcc-3.3.3-43.26.1
glibc-2.3.3-98.35.3
