Description of problem: On Linux/Alpha (build from FC3 source packages) some application (especially mozilla, firefox, konqueror, gij) crashes when started by linuxthreads version of ld.so dynamic loader. If I use NPTL version of ld.so - the application above started to work. After some investigation the problem found in patch to the glibc/linuxthreads/sysdeps/tls.h contained in fedora.patch distributed with src.rpm of glibc. The attached file contains patch to the original glibc CVS file that fixes the problem. Thank you,
Created attachment 110270 [details] patch to glibc CVS version of linuxthreads/sysdeps/alpha/tls.h
Is there any chance for patch to be applied? Is it possible be add Alpha to list of nptl arches? Thank you.
FC5 will have no LinuxThreads support anymore, therefore this will resolve itself magically.
I meant to close the bug...
