I don't like that they pulled the stat functions out into a seperate static library. Alot of things nag about "_xstat" undefined if not linked against libc_nonshared.a. Also the unix 98 pty support seems to be lacking. openpty() is prototyped extern in <pty.h>, but never defined elsewhere. They also change utmpx stuff so ssh-2.0.12 at least is broken. So much for glibc2.0 being the last version without binary compatability.
Does anyone have devpts stuff working with glibc2.1? Do you have to link in another library to define openpty()?
