Re: Problems building glibc/eglibc

I saw different nptl headers for the arm-eabi. I set up the --host and
--build to point to gnueabi (that triggered the usage of the eabi nptl
headers), and this way the nptl doesn't require the "-fexceptions" as
it required without eabi.

I'd like to know why fedora 11 have a "-fexceptions yes" in their
config.log. Maybe the glibc people changed the test? Would the
compiler there work that different from f10?

eglibc compiles for a long time, and it still has not finished. All
looks good by now.
