Re: Reproducing glibc testsuite failures on hppa-linux.

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. =)

You will find that 'tst-fork1' is an intermittent failure dealing with a race condition in our kernel, we know the problem, we just don't know how to fix it properly. The test-float failures are fixed by the silent-nan fixes Joel Soete fixed in gcc. I don't know why the tst-cond17 / tst-cond18 tests failed.

Good luck! :-)

Cheers,
carlos.
