This following list contains those bugs which I'm aware of. Please
|
|
make sure that bugs you report are not listed here. If you can fix one
|
|
of these bugs/limitations I'll certainly be glad to receive a patch.
|
|
|
|
Another source of information about bugs is the problem data base of the
|
|
GNU project. There is an easy to use WWW interface available at
|
|
|
|
http://www-gnats.gnu.ai.mit.edu:8080/cgi-bin/wwwgnats.pl
|
|
|
|
I would appreciate it very much if you could verify the problem was not
|
|
reported before by looking through the database. To make the information
|
|
in this database as useful as possible please report bugs always using the
|
|
`glibcbug' shell script which gets installed with GNU libc.

Severity: [ *] to [***]
|
|
|
|
|
|
[ **] For GNU libc on Linux, there is still no solution for the UTMP
|
|
problem.
|
|
[Among others: PR libc/39]
|
|
|
|
[ **] There are problems with signal handling when using LinuxThreads.
|
|
|
|
[ **] The `cbrtl' function for ix86 does not work in the moment.
|
|
|
|
[ **] Not really a bug, but it could lead to such:
|
|
The RPC code is ugly ugly ugly. It's more or less verbatim taken
|
|
from Sun's code and therefore mostly lacks complete prototypes and
|
|
(more important) the use of `const'. It *definitely* needs to be
|
|
cleaned.
|
|
|
|
[ *] The precision of the `sinhl' and/or `asinhl' function do not seem
|
|
to be the best.
|
|
|
|
[ *] The syslog function should print to the console if the LOG_CONS
|
|
flag was given.
|
|
[PR libc/72]
|
|
|
|
[ *] On Linux, the <linux/posix_types.h> is not clean enough to satisfy
|
|
the C++ namespace rules. Declaring `struct fd_set' also makes
|
|
`fd_set' available in the global namespace which conflicts with
|
|
the definition of `fd_set' in glibc.
|
|
[PR libc/79]
|
|
|
|
[ *] On Linux, there should be a way to prevent defining the symbol
|
|
NGROUPS_MAX in the <linux/limits.h> header file. In glibc it
|
|
is defined in <posix1_lim.h> which must not make the other
|
|
symbols in <linux/limits.h> available.
|
|
[PR libc/140]
