To revert to the issue I raised not so long ago: has anyone got 
glibc-2.8 to pass, on "make check", the newly-introduced 
tst-gettext6, on which my machine (Thinkpad, Intel Core 2) hung?
(This is a test for multi-threaded use of gettext, as I understand 
it.)  

One possible virtue of an "official release" is that one might 
expect it to get a fair amount of testing.  I wonder how much 
testing tst-gettext6 has had.
