I updated to 2.1.1-0.2 the other day and a bunch of things broke.
(e.g. apt's http method segfaults inside a pthread function call.)
When I went back to 2.1.1-0.1.1, everything started working again.
(2.2.5 cvs kernel.)   This is on an Sun4u machine.

Note that I am not running "nscd" (nscd seems to cause bus errors on
name lookups after you cahange versions of libc).


What changed between 0.1.1 and 0.2?
