If I compile an executable (I just used a basic hello world - "gcc hello.c") with gcc, and examine the executable in a text editor, I see numerous references to various files in /var/tmp/portage/glibc-2.3.2-r9/work/. Not sure what these strings are exactly, but "strip" removes them all. At any rate, as far as I know, nothing in compiled programs should be pointing to that directory. Could be something to watch out for. I'm using glibc-2.3.2-r9 and gcc-3.3.2-r5. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Compile a C program 2.
