Well, the machines that are affected are an AMD K6 (not a -2) and an
Athlon. I just checked my laptop, which is a Mobile Pentium II, and it
doesn't have the problem...
I also ruled out lwresd and IPv6 as possible things that make libc6
fail.
So, apparently it has something to do with NIS, but the strange thing is
that even if NIS is disabled (daemons stopped, original nsswitch.conf
restored, normal /etc/shadow and passwd), it breaks!
