The latest glibc 2.0.6 I was spreading only has MIPS-specific bug
fixes.  All the other big holes which are indeed big enough to drive
a nice shipload of trucks through are unfixed.  I haven't noticed
that any other glibc 2.0 variant floating around has additional
fixes.

Nice for Cobalt boxen ...

Debian is being ported to Cobalts.  A base tar ball can be found at
http://www.pocketlinux.com/~samc/debian-cobalt

All the latest stuff there. I use it for my native build system. The
kernel is a 2.4.5 BTW if people are curious. I attempt a 2.4.6 kernel but
for some reason the cube doesn't like it. I believe I have a bug in the
old time code which is affected by the soft_pending change. I will attempt
to track it down some time next week.
