Description Glen A. Foster 2004-01-15 17:14:55 UTC 
Description of problem: This represents a regression from the previous
kernel/glibc combination.  Test case #1 for genuts/free fails with the
beta-2 taroon update 1 kernel/glibc.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
# rpm -q kernel glibc
glibc-2.3.2-95.6
glibc-2.3.2-95.6
kernel-2.4.21-7.EL

How reproducible: 100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. everything install
2. install LSB 1.3.6-3 test suite
3. configure test, login as vsx0 and run the tests
4. examine the results
  
Actual results: Perusing the existing waivers, we see this output from
"tjreport -w LSB.waivers.all results/0001e/journal":

Comment 1 Jakub Jelinek 2004-01-19 10:08:01 UTC 
Doesn't fail for me (though the programmer who wrote the testcase
should be shot).  glibc-2.3.2-95.6, kernel-2.4.21-9.EL.  Anyone else can reproduce it?
Comment 2 Glen A. Foster 2004-01-20 21:21:21 UTC 
Hrm... if you run _just_ the free testcase, it doesn't fail, even with
the -7.EL kernel.  If you run all the LSB tests, it intermittently fails.
Comment 3 Glen A. Foster 2004-01-26 00:21:10 UTC 
I can't consistently reproduce this (no better than 1 time out of 10),
so I'm closing it.  I'll re-open it if I discover a more reproducible
scenario.
