Just an update from the openSUSE Distribution: I've packaged the version
from 20121109 and recompiled the whole distribution on x86-64 and did
not notice any problems in glibc.
Around 10 packages needed to be fixed due to:
* Some packages had missing includes (e.g. signal.h or stdint.h).
Those are easily fixed by including the header defining the missing types.
* The functions setfsgid() and setfsuid() produce warnings when the
return value is not checked and thus fail to when -Werror is used. The
proper fix is to check whether these functions have a return value less
than 0.
* clock_gettime() was moved from librt to libc. Some configure
scripts check only whether clock_gettime is in librt and assume that
other functions like mq_gettattr() are in the same library. So, the
configure check for clock_gettime() in librt needs to be extended to
look for other functions as well.
I've just submitted current head to rebuild all of x86-64 and once
that's fine will push into openSUSE's development version.
So, everything fine from my side right now,
Andreas
