Gentoo's 2.10.1 should be working now (and i'm using it).  i havent tried 2.11 
yet because there is no libc-port 2.11 tarball because no one has created a 
glibc-2.11 tag in the ports tree.  once someone creates the tag, and i can 
poke someone to make the tarball, i'll look at getting it working under alpha.
