I just ran your test program on sparc and i386 (bothing running unstable,
both also using 2.4.0-test/2.4.0 kernels) and this was the output:

%./testsys.py
testing system
hello there
hello there
hello there
hello there
hello there
hello there
hello there
hello there
hello there
hello there
ret is  0

I then went back and tested with a glibc 2.1.3 system (sparc and i386)
and saw your error results. So, the problem is resolved with the latest
glibc 2.2.
