glibc-2.2.4 & gconv & rpm


Hi List,

Since yesterday I am trying to compile and install glibc-2.2.4 without
success. Even though most programs seem to work, I get the following
error message when I try to install packages.

rpm: ../iconv/skeleton.c:302: gconv: Assertion `outbufstart == ((void *)0)' failed.
Aborted

Searching the web if someone else had a similar problem, I found only
few hints -- but no answer. At least it doesn't seem to be a FAQ ;-)

A bug report filed in GNATS that mentions a similar problem, proposes a
fix that first of all doesn't work here and also *seems* to apply to
SMP systems only. The affected code section in linuxthreads/spinlock.c
is encapsulated in

  if (__pthread_smp_kernel) {
  
  } 

Does anyone have an idea how I could get a working glibc? Or ist it
maybe an RPM bug?

I compiled under the linux kernel 2.2.19 using the 2.4.16 headers. A
partial output of the configure run is at the end of this message (The
full RPM build log is available on request. It is almost 7MB in size)

Thanks a lot,
       Marcus
