Until the issues from these threads are resolved, 2.95.3 plus a small
patch should be a more conservative solution for reliably building glibc
than 3.0.  AFAIK both

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2001-03/msg01187.html

and

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2001-06/msg00748.html

are needed, but there should be a properly packaged and tested patch.
