To revert to the issue I raised not so long ago: has anyone got
glibc-2.8 to pass, on "make check", the newly-introduced
tst-gettext6, on which my machine (Thinkpad, Intel Core 2) hung?
(This is a test for multi-threaded use of gettext, as I understand
it.)
One possible virtue of an "official release" is that one might
expect it to get a fair amount of testing. I wonder how much
testing tst-gettext6 has had.
