In portage/sys-libs/glibc/files/eblits/common.eblit the commented lines need to be removed. These checks are no longer valid. I have been running sparc32 without segfauts in QEMU and on an SS20... occasional deadlocks but that seems to be a kernel issue. Regardless enabling NTPL for sparc is extremely unlikely to break anyone's box these days ;-) and it gets me closer to being able to use portage out of the box on Sparc v8. want_nptl() { [[ -z ${LT_VER} ]] && return 0 want_tls || return 1 use nptl || return 1 # Only list the arches that cannot do NPTL case $(tc-arch) in m68k) return 1;; #sparc) # # >= v9 is needed for nptl. # [[ ${PROFILE_ARCH} == "sparc" ]] && return 1 #;; esac return 0 } And below that... want__thread() { want_tls || return 1 # For some reason --with-tls --with__thread is causing segfaults on sparc32. #[[ ${PROFILE_ARCH} == "sparc" ]] && return 1
since sparc32 isn't really supported anymore, i don't care :). deleted! http://sources.gentoo.org/sys-libs/glibc/files/eblits/common.eblit?r1=1.35&r2=1.36
