After peering at weird segfaults on Red Hat Null (8.0 beta) last night, I can see that it might be possible to assemble enough hacks so that the stable branch will work on R H 8. Assuming that they haven't changed the threading model used in the transition between the "null" final beta and 8.0 itself, which doesn't sound likely. I thought that 8.0 would use glibc-2.3, but apparently it is only at 2.2.93, so we don't have to deal yet with big threading changes. How has threading changed in RH8 and/or glibc 2.3? Have they dropped LinuxThreads? I had expected only to be able to support R H 8 on the head, using the LDT/GDT support, but it seems that might not be necessary. Vague plan therefore is to assemble this and various other bugfixes What fixes do you intend putting in the 1.0.X branch? J |
