Asterisk (tested with 1.2.7_p1-r1 and earlier versions) fails to start when using glibc 2.3.6-r3 with nptl.

I can confirm this. Asterisk compiled with glibc-2.3.6-r3 sagfaults shortly after start. I tried the following versions of asterisk: 1.2.7_p1-r1 1.2.7_p1 1.0.8-r3 Compiling was fine, but the program segfaults while reading its configfiles and initializing the pbx-system. masking glibc-2.3.6-r3 and switching back to 2.3.5-r3 makes asterisk live again :) heres my emerge --info (after switching back to 2.3.5...)

Adam: does this happen to you with the latest asterisk versions? I'm using it fine with glibc-2.3.6-r5 on a couple hardened systems and there doesn't seem to be other reports about this issue in bugzilla.
Sry, i don't know exactly, i masked glibc 2.3.6 and tried it with glibc-2.4-r4 when it became stable, that works fine with asterisk 1.2.13.
So this looks like an alpha-ism then. Bert: tested against newer versions?
Long ago this bug was filed and new versions of glibc and asterisk have been released. @Bert, @Adam: any news? or we can close this as FIXED?
No info, closing.
