Heya Carlos!  Thanks for this.  This is a quick heads up for the
experiment.  Using the Ubuntu glibc package, compiling with gcc-4.2
instead of gcc-4.1 removes the following failures:

test-float
tst-cond17
tst-cond18
tst-robustpi8
tst-fork1

Some tests that use C99 initialisers no longer compiler, but that's
expected with glibc-2.5

I'll keep you posted as I converge. =)
