If this message comes up it means normally a corrupted binary. > - the crt[ni].* problem Zack mentioned (this seems to be IMHO the only > show stopper) This is no problem with the patch I added. As rth commented, I also don't believe Zack's words that with the -march=i386 flag properly used there is a problem. > - PR libc/1174: "stdio without SA_RESTART loses output" I haven't found so far a passage in POSIX which would require it otherwise.
