trouble with NGPT + Linux 2.5.40 + glibc 2.2.93

Hello list!

I just tried NGPT 2.0.3 with the newest RH8.0 and a fairly current 2.5.40
kernel. Besides the normal problems with the wrong futex syscall number 
(you HAVE TO activate the new kernel include directories for all future
program compilations) I run into other problems too:

During the basic NGPT initialisation in pth_lib.c line 245 is a call to
sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF), which detects the number of processors in the
system. This is done finding the proc file system in /etc/mtab and looking
there for the number of processes. But on the way there we come across a
getmntent_r() (mind the _r for reentrant here!). This calls sscanf() to parse
the mnt entries which gives a SEGFAULT. We are still in the basic thread
library init phase and call a *_r-function. Could this work (at least in
theory) at all?

If I set the environment variable MAXNATIVETHREADS to 1, the sysconf() call
should be skipped but the strtol() to convert the environment variable string
("1") to an integer (1) gives a SEGFAULT as well. So it may be another problem
altogether.

I just downloaded glibc-2.2.93-5.src.rpm and will look a bit further into
all this mess.

Bye, Uwe
