Just after I enter my password at kdm login screen, kdm_greet prints the
following error to syslog:
kdm_greet[2551]: Internal error: memory corruption detected
Everything goes fine however: I can login successfully and continue to work
without any further problem.
I do use both a custom kdm theme and a custom splash screen.

ive added the fix from upstream (thanks for the links Carsten) and it'll be in
next glibc version i push out ... not worried too much about this issue since
it can easily be worked around by not having a broken /etc/shells in the first
place
NOT fixed in glibc-2.5-r3 + kde-base/kdm-3.5.7...
then i dont plan on fixing it for glibc-2.5
try glibc-2.6
Are there any particular reasons why glibc-2.6 has no keywords?
I've found the following inside the ebuild:
KEYWORDS="" #DO NOT KEYWORD; WAIT FOR 2.6.1
I do not want to install a bugged glibc version just to fix this minor issue...
I still get this bug with glibc-2.6 and kdm-3.5.7. I believe it may be due to
this kde bug: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=147454. Gentoo also uses the
same broken kdelibs patch as Fedora and Kubuntu:
kdelibs-3.5-sudo-permissions.diff. It appears Fedora has dropped the patch.
that's in kde's court now ;)
Bummer. Thanks Joseph. Fixed with kdelibs-3.5.6-r10 and kdelibs-3.5.7-r2.
