This bug has appeared quite a long ago, you can find it in a sourceware BZ with existing patch at:
|
||
|
|
||
|
http://sources.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3270#c2
|
||
|
|
||
|
The patch solves the problem, but I have no idea why this hasn't been applied in the upstream already. I have attached a slightly modiffied version of the patch to be able to be applied and built on RHEL5 glibc sources and it works and solves the problem.
|
||
|
|
||
|
There is also existing BZ for RHEL4:
