Re: linker errors when compiling and linking with a new glibc
What about the error "libgcc_s.so.1 must be installed for pthread_cancel to work"? Does anyone have an idea why is this the case?
Thanks for the link on the wiki.
Daniel

I have another problem now. I have a test program that uses "pthread_foo_init()", now that I got rid of the "undefined reference error" it compiles fine, but when I run the executable with testrun.sh I get the error "libgcc_s.so.1 must be installed for pthread_cancel to work", I haven't installed my new glibc yet and I wouldn't wanna do it just yet until I fully test my change.

Sorry Daniel, installing glibc over the existing system toolchain is
beyond my knowledge.
You can do a make install install_root="somedirectory" and it will
install your libc to: somedirectory/$prefix
You can then check in there to see what it installs.
For tips on testing your GLIBC take a look at our wiki:
