Comment 1 Andrew Bevitt 2004-11-29 14:35:01 UTC 
Does this still occur with the newer releases of xorg-x11?

If it does, id suggest actually recompiling binutils with some lesser cflags.
Comment 2 Ian Truelsen 2005-01-17 19:57:11 UTC 
This happens for me as well.

Still a problem with 6.8.99.15 or modular X?
