Yep. I signalled it on the Sourceforge bug tracking system (see at
<URL:http://sourceforge.net/bugs/?func=detailbug&bug_id=115919&group_id=5470>).
I encounter that bug on Debian unstable too. I discussed with
Debian gurus, and it appears that this is a bug in gcc triggered by
recent glibc. As you must already know, Red Hat 7 ships with a very
unstable non-official snapshot of gcc and a very beta version of
glibc, the combination of which triggers that bug.
No solution is self-evident to me, except to wait for the stable
gcc-3 and glibc-2.2.
