I (will) have put version 2.1.pre1 of glibc-crypt on
< http://www.ozemail.com.au/~geoffk/glibc-crypt/glibc-crypt-2.1.pre1.tar.gz >

The change is a workaround for an egcs bug/omission that is only
visible on 32-bit machines when egcs was not built under glibc 2.1.

Please test this.  I would appreciate success reports from alpha,
sparc32, and sparc64.

You can check for the egcs problem by trying the following short
program:

int main(void)
{
#if 4294967295U != 18446744073709551615ULL
        return 0;
#else
        abort();
#endif
}

If it aborts, you know your egcs has the problem.
