Bug#325600: closed by Aurelien Jarno <aurelien@aurel32.net> (Closing bugs fixed in unreleased version 2.4-1 of the glibc)

[Tom Evans <tom@23palmer.net>]

When will this version be moved into stable/Etch?

A buggy version was moved to Etch/stable and will cause stability 
problems with Debian on Alpha.

This bug essentially causes a resource leak and will mean that systems 
will need to be rebooted frequently
or services will need to be restarted regularly to avoid the problem.

This seems unacceptable for a "stable" release.
