Description Nathan G. Grennan 2007-09-18 00:31:16 UTC
Description of problem:
Application compiled with "-pie" flag crash.

There has recently been a new release of the kernel and yet no fix for this bug.
I find this totally unacceptable. If anything with the -pie flag is used in a
cron job, like su, it will randomly fail.

This is apparently another copy of this bug, but it is private. Hence why I made
this bug.
