Hi Ladislav,

I might be wrong, but it looks like one of the symptoms of having
kernel headers later than the version used to compile glibc, hence why
a glibc rebuild fixes it. If this is the case, it depends what has
been done with kernels as to whether you get the problem or not.

I ended up with something similar when I installed a 2.5.x kernel for
a looksee and then went back to using 2.4.x - everything after that
point got compiled against 2.5.x headers and gave problems..

It's one of the reasons why I'd like to see full dependancies and
version tracking.. Are you really sure you want to upgrade your kernel
headers because you're gonna have to rebuild most of your system!? type
stuff...

I didn't and just relinked a set 2.4.x kernel headers to
/usr/src/linux and the problems went away..
