same thing. I sent the libsafe team a mail explaining the situation. Hopefully 
this will shed some light. By the way, the source for these tests does not 
contain any references to libsafe protected functions (they use allocate) 
Could it be the use of /etc/ld.so.preload?

FAIL: S-records
FAIL: S-records with constructors

Talking about these? Will get to them, after the libsafe team (hopefully) 
answers.
