it seems packages are failing when built with glibc-2.8 and/or gcc-4.3. these |
| 2 |
are issues in the package, not the toolchain. previous versions were lazy |
| 3 |
and included API "bleeding" which packages took advantage of. with these |
| 4 |
newer versions, things bleed less means those packages break. |

some common examples: |
| 7 |
- code not including limits.h yet using defines from it |
| 8 |
- code using GNU-specific features but not defining _GNU_SOURCE for it |
| 9 |
- maybe some other stuff |

please refrain from assigning to toolchain. if you have questions, feel free |
| 12 |
to ask. |
