Well I had to halt the rebuild when I found out that coreutils was
segfaulting when any form of LD_PRELOAD was set, so installwatch
wouldn't work. This was because I built coreutils with the selinux
patch. I'm not sure if this is because we don't have a proper policy
in place or because something in the vast amounts of code I modified
to include selinux is failing somehow...

I'm hoping its a policy issue. I've seen emails on the selinux ml that
people have had problems with fakeroot in debian (another
LD_PRELOAD'ed library) and the solution is that the policy needed to
be modified so everyone has execute privleges on the ld-preloaded
library.

I've since reverted coreutils to not have selinux for now so I can
start the rebuild with glibc 2.6.1 and see what happens.

Thanks,
