Bug#218657: the latest libc6 + 2.6 kernel problem (was Re: Bug#218657: glibc: libc6 2.3.2.ds1-8 breaks system with x86_64 kernel)

The statfs invocation at line 183 in file
coreutils-5.0.91/lib/fsusage.c is the failing function.

Is there much of a difference in the libc/kernel interaction between
2.3.2-9 which works fine and 2.3.2.ds1 versions?

I suspect that you are right. Perhaps I can build the testsuite with
2.3.2-9 and then run it with the .ds1-10 glibc?
