Fwd: glibc compiled!

[Kevin Hendricks <khendricks at ivey dot uwo dot ca>]

Hi,

While I was farting around with a bad cvs tree (by the way doing a simple cvs
update would not update the linuxthreads_db subdirectory and I literally had to
recheck out the whole thing from scratch), some users of 2.3.XX kernels have
successfully compiled glibc-2.1.3 on powerpc.

Here is a list of the warning the got during compilation.

Tom also wrote to me that it passed macke check with flying colors.

I hope this info helps.  If I hear any other success stories I will forward
them over the next day or so.

Thanks,

Kevin

gcc did state it's unhappieness now and again, though -- I sort of
manually caught the errors as they flew by :-)

Here they are (not going to guarantee that there aren't others):
