Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.5-13

There is a serious bug in glibc's dlclose that casues a segfault when a library being dlclosed calls dlclose from an _fini function (i.e. a c++ destructor for a static or global object). This has been fixed by the glibc maintainers in 2.3.6; the original patch is here:

http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libc-hacker/2005-04/msg00014.html

The libc6 package should either move to 2.3.6 upstream sources or backport this fix.

I confirm that this fix is present in our 2.3.6 version, so I am closing the bug.
