I'm sorry--I don't understand where I am supposed to add -U_FORTIFY_SOURCE to the CFLAGS.  I tried the following, but it did not work (same result as before):

1.  Cleared the glibc_obj directory.
2.  Ran configure as before from glibc_obj in order to create a Makefile.
3.  Added
  CFLAGS := $(CFLAGS) -U_FORTIFY_SOURCE
to the top of the Makefile in the root gcc_obj directory.
4.  When this failed to work by itself, I added the line
	export CFLAGS
right about the ".DEFAULT" target rule
        $(MAKE) -r PARALLELMFLAGS="$(PARALLELMFLAGS)" -C $(srcdir) objdir=`pwd` $@

I have also tried clearing the glibc_obj directory and then running configure this way:

glibc_obj$ ../glibc/configure --prefix=/home/afa9/GLIBC/glibc_install CFLAGS="$(CFLAGS) -U_FORTIFY_SOURCE"

Configured fine, but make ran into the same problem.

Thanks!
