Anyone compiled 1.9.17 with glibc2?

[Eloy A. Paris]

Hi,

I am in the process of making an unofficial Samba 1.9.17 package for
the Debian GNU/Linux distribution.

The next release of Debian will be one of the first Linux distributions
to be build with the new libc6 (GNU's C library - glibc2). In the 
past the Linux C library was different from the GNU C library but
now the trend is to go to glibc2.

Well, compiling Samba 1.9.17 with glibc2 has been a pain. I got 
several compiler warnings about symbol redefinitions and stuff like
that. Also, I had to add some new libraries because linking was failing
too.

Any way, I finally could make the binaries but for some reason I
am getting this (in the log file) when trying to access a share
(browsing seems to be working fine):

Added interface ip=130.151.17.202 bcast=130.151.17.255 nmask=255.255.255.128

===============================================================
INTERNAL ERROR: Signal 11 in pid 108 (1.9.17)
Please read the file BUGS.txt in the distribution
===============================================================

And then, a whole bunch of crap.

My questions are:

1) Has anyone compiled Samba 1.9.17 with glibc2?

2) In the Makefile there is a section that says "Use this for Linux
with quota and glibc2, contributed by Thorvald Natvig
<slicer at bimbo.hive.no>". This section defines the symbol GLIBC2 but
IT IS NOT used anywhere in the source files. The author says that
his patch was not included in the final release. Does anyone know why?

3) Any idea on what is causing the core dump above?

Let me know if someone wants more information.

Thanks in advance for any help.
