Yeah, I'm gonna hold off on the glibc update. I haven't had problems
with the compiler. I get some extraneous warnings when compiling some
packages, but no errant effects from anything I've compiled (I guess I
should say no more erroneous when I was running 6.2). Only problem I saw
with the glibc update was with devfsd. Plus I've had problems with some
C++ programs as I think there's a problem with the >> operator that
traces back to the same problems causing devfsd to segfault, at least
from my cursory research.
