It's only broken with the latest gcc which adds some checks which
weren't there before.  I have glibc-2.3.2-r1 installed on my alpha and
was quite surprised when it wouldn't rebuild...! ;-)

Yeah, it would be great to get the latest glibc on alpha.  Richard
Henderson has been doing a lot of work on it.

I'll see what I can do about 2.3.2-r6.

On a related note, anybody know what you have to do to make nptl work?
What breaks when you enable it?  Anything?
