Created attachment 557192 [details] gdb output and disassembly of _itoa() from glibc-2.15-2 It seems that gcc 4.7 generates wrong code in the _itoa() function from glibc-2.15. Symptoms are segfaults when running binaries with glibc-2.15-2.fc17 (http://s390.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=94051) that was built with gcc-4.7.0-0.8.fc17. When glibc-2.15-1.fc17 (built with gcc 4.6) is installed then same binaries run without segfaults. <mock-chroot>gdb --args /usr/libexec/gcc/s390-redhat-linux/4.7.0/cc1 /tmp/a.i GNU gdb (GDB) Fedora (7.4.50.20120103-8.fc17) Copyright (C) 2012 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Indeed, char * _itoa (unsigned long long, char *, unsigned, int); char buf[64]; int main (void) { char *p = _itoa (4LL, buf, 10, 0); return 0; } linked statically against 2.15-1.s390 libc.a works, and against 2.15-2.s390 libc.a segfaults.
Should be fixed in gcc-4.7.0-0.10.fc17, but you need to remove the miscompiled glibc from the buildroots first, then build this gcc, then rebuild glibc.
