[daemon@cygnus.com] Re: Bug in dl-open()...

The mail had an old address in the header.  Therefore resent here.

Since you might have not seen the original mail either a short
explanation.  Scott is seeing crashes in the elf/ subdir tests of
glibc since during dlopen the search for the call in dl_open_worker
fails.

My guess is that the __builtin_return_address function for ARM fails
or some other errors lead to an incorrect `caller' value.

You lost the bet.  The dynamic loader is loaded at 0x2aaaa000 on x86.

Please tell me what the content of `caller' is.  I assume this value
is wrong.
