Fixed In Version: glibc-2.5-49.el5_5.3
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Under certain circumstances, unloading a module could leave the remaining modules' symbol search list in an inconsistent state. Consequent to this inconsistency, symbol lookups could spuriously fail to find the symbol. This update corrects this: module unloading no longer produces inconsistent state in the symbol search list.
