Re: zeroing of bss segments

It seems that many of the problems that I am seeing on our mpc823 board is
related to uninitialized static variables in the glibc library. What lead
my to this conclusion is that many of the programs are segfaulting and
always in the glibc library.
Tracking down the individual functions, such as gethostbyname and the
sunrpc functions and explicitly setting static pointers to NULL in the
library code cured many of the segfaults.

Are you sure you have patched your glibc correctly for 8xx?
