1. Summary:
Updated glibc packages that address several bugs and implement some
enhancements are now available.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 3 - i386, i686, ia64, ppc, ppc64, s390, s390x, x86_64
Red Hat Desktop version 3 - i386, i686, x86_64

3. Problem description:
The GNU libc packages (known as glibc) contain the standard C libraries
used by applications.
This errata fixes several bugs in the GNU C Library.
Fixes include (in addition to enclosed Bugzilla entries):
- - - fixed 32-bit atomic operations on 64-bit powerpc
- - - fixed -m32 -I /usr/include/nptl compilation on AMD64
- - - NPTL <pthread.h> should now be usable in C++ code or -pedantic -std=c89 C
- - - rwlocks are now available also in the _POSIX_C_SOURCE=200112L namespace
- - - pthread_once is no longer throw(), as the callback routine might throw
- - - pthread_create now correctly returns EAGAIN when thread couldn't be
created because of lack of memory
- - - fixed NPTL stack freeing in case of pthread_create failure with detached
thread
- - - fixed pthread_mutex_timedlock on i386 and AMD64
- - - Itanium gp saving fix in linuxthreads
- - - fixed s390/s390x unwinding tests done during cancellation if stack frames
are small
- - - fixed fnmatch(3) backslash handling
- - - fixed out of memory behaviour of syslog(3)
- - - resolver ID randomization
- - - fixed fim (NaN, NaN)
- - - glob(3) fixes for dangling symlinks
- - - catchsegv fixed to work with both 32-bit and 64-bit binaries on x86-64,
s390x and ppc
- - - fixed reinitialization of _res when using NPTL stack cache
- - - updated bug reporting instructions, removed glibcbug script
- - - fixed infinite loop in iconv with some options
- - - fixed inet_aton return value
- - - CPU friendlier busy waiting in linuxthreads on EM64T and IA-64
- - - avoid blocking/masking debug signal in linuxthreads
- - - fixed locale program output when neither LC_ALL nor LANG is set
- - - fixed using of unitialized memory in localedef
- - - fixed mntent_r escape processing
- - - optimized mtrace script
- - - linuxthread_db fixes on ppc64
- - - cfi instructions in x86-64 linuxthreads vfork
- - - some _POSIX_C_SOURCE=200112L namespace fixes
All users of glibc should upgrade to these updated packages, which resolve
these issues.
4. Solution:
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied. Use Red Hat
Network to download and update your packages. To launch the Red Hat
Update Agent, use the following command:
up2date
For information on how to install packages manually, refer to the
following Web page for the System Administration or Customization
guide specific to your system:
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/
5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/):
123583 - getnameinfo does not use /etc/hosts for lookup of V4MAPPED addresses
132816 - glibc in RHEL 3 needs to have syslog.c updated to cvs version 1.42

118574 - malloc exhausts memory to fast in mulithreaded program
127606 - __builtin_expect's prototype does not expect int args; assert feeds it just that
103415 - Weird string in date printing
136726 - RHEL3 U5: execvp fails if ENODEV encountered during PATH search
135234 - Problem with gethostbyaddr with latest UDP
136318 - CAN-2004-0968 temporary file vulnerabilities in catchsegv script
130254 - glibc's traceback() fails when called from an exception handler
116428 - RHEL3 U4: statfs64
132654 - LTC10984 - 1.3.1 Linux JVM hanging on RedHat EL 3 update 3
