SS2 segfaults when running ldd
I'm copying this message over to sparclinux - I doubt it's
debian-specific.

Brief background: On my Sparc 2, running Debian, kernel versions 2.0.33 or
2.0.35, 'ldd' will segfault. In general, however, the system seems to
work well.
I'm using libc 2.0.93.
As you can see above, for Kevin, 2.1.109 fixed the problem.
Unfortunately, CVS has moved on since then, and the snapshot I compiled a
couple of days ago (2.1.111) will boot but segfaults all over the place
(in rcS, for example).
Anyone got any idea if this *is* a kernel problem, or which version I
should go for?
