Dear maintainers,
after the last upgrade, it seems libc6 and X11 will not work together (I
cannot prove which one of both is causing the problem).
After the latest upgrade X inhibits to start and shows this message:
> 0: /usr/bin/X11/X(xorg_backtrace+0x26) [0x4edfe6]

It looks like there is a problem with libc6. This problemn appears at a
user, whoms system I maintain (sadly the user is not experienced in debian
and linux, and I am 600km away). But I have ssh access to this system.
It would be nice, if you could take a look on this behaviour.
Thank you very much!
Regards
Hans-J. Ullrich
