51 Here's my uname -a: Linux andrey 2.6.26.5-rt9 #6 PREEMPT RT Mon Oct 20
52 18:21:31 EDT 2008 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP 1700+ AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux
53 But emerge --info | grep uname is this: System uname:
54 Linux-2.6.26.5-rt9-i686-AMD_Athlon-tm-_XP_1700+-with-glibc2.0
55
56 Clearly, the underscores and -with-glibc are part of portage 2.2_rc12.
57 I'm going to scan through the portage _rc12.patch diff to see what's
58 going on.
59 Will report when finished.
