[dank@krunch dank]$ cat /etc/issue
Red Hat Linux release 8.0 (Psyche)
Kernel \r on an \m

[dank@krunch dank]$ rpm -q -a | grep glibc
glibc-2.2.93-5
glibc-devel-2.2.93-5
glibc-common-2.2.93-5
glibc-kernheaders-2.4-7.20

I don't think my system is updated.  Thus I suspect Red Hat 8 ships
with a prerelease version of glibc 2.3.0 called 2.2.93.
(And since my problem happens on rh7.2 as well, I don't think
the errno handling is the problem.)
