Hi,
I'm using the latest stable glibc package for amd64 and the following result when using some java applet:

*** glibc detected *** /opt/firefox/firefox-bin: free(): invalid next size (fast): 0x0975d568 ***
======= Backtrace: =========

I've found on the web that new 2.5 glibc solve this problem.
Pleace, mark it as stable as soon as possible.
Thank you all.

having this bug open doesnt really have much value ... glibc-2.5 is in portage and it's known to fix this problem so ...
