After looking at the changes in the code in glibc I believe I found a bug and Marius helped me on IRC work through some of the options. It looks like a variable was mis-initialized as -1, causing that branch of the code to always fail. I've pushed an update to the glibc-bootstrap-system.patch on core-updates that produces working bootstrap binaries. --=20 Efraim Flashner =D7=90=D7=A4=D7=A8=D7=99=D7=9D = =D7=A4=D7=9C=D7=A9=D7=A0=D7=A8 GPG key =3D A28B F40C 3E55 1372 662D 14F7 41AA E7DC CA3D 8351 Confidentiality cannot be guaranteed on emails sent or received unencrypted --6c2NcOVqGQ03X4Wi Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEEoov0DD5VE3JmLRT3Qarn3Mo9g1EFAl9q3BQACgkQQarn3Mo9 g1G3oxAApFXq9/xxBTpxdMx3HdTyjP6/NDiE38eu7tx0qm/X8LKssMvLWgMICy6y DOQ0CawCSumqIkRZ9SU9atwvrJjx4eUEQybMc1snjM2w/jz4nNFaGwj8PuCZAdT7 +A/7xLamSmJ8eKT1ax+dUwUX/rQNBNdoam68Co1qnzDBorTQTpStYF7xhMfuJAdV JIRruvnpX08OxCe78wtNHQX/H9EKlzA7wN1LjZqVWbRrUJ39bZOlUTNnlu97WnQ3 MejswEEhkCC9sGFF0MBk/IpGwYFWqWmIV20nD75y1xpVmIz6rYfmRdeIN/fhC9Js t6Qn4+n7qZ21epPs5if2ty25DAZTktv2SJrorwPs0tHt3RL39efabB+w1eiW3/lL v+2MtFNFOqSch4F3ZygBM+CVyqynhc7YtXXJWASplR4SEaaRPo12sS76e0c456e+ edxJ6PASLNYhh4DXT456Vhv4cinIUkUw8jb0fYOhZJuOfouGBhYPyWxwDunJwZrP uusOYEKhI4cE8tXiCLDf+isUAd2PbqEjWcbJ09cT21aS5eXBcje28C0WNM9OnPu1 81PHrwfh5ktfT+02i6y3ePxyXevyQ4kl5mMZ8NGIvtLSeKZr04EwRSldPKCWDerC KsPdSXjLvNpBcYN8PZ/9NIS9WJQ0GzlyEVkvbB0/egwsObs3Jt0= =xYB+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --6c2NcOVqGQ03X4Wi--
