that right?

Bdale gave me an access to netwinder, so I can try to reproduce the
problem. On this machine the libc6 2.5-4 seems to work correctly, I am
able to run bash and all the commands from the postrm script.

I guess the next step is to upgrade the chroot of netwinder to unstable
to see if the same problem also appears on this machine.

It would also be nice if you can give me the current version of the
kernel that europa? runs, and the output of /proc/cpuinfo so that we
could compare the two machines.

Thanks,
Aurelien
