how do I get high uid support

[Cliff Draper <Cliff.Draper@Sun.com>]

Hi,

My group just recently switched to using 32-bit uids.  My
understanding was that kernel 2.4 would support that.  I compiled
2.3.99pre8, rebooted, and tried a high uid user.  And it failed
("setuid: Invalid argument").  Further reading suggested that I'd need
to go to glibc 2.2 (I'm currently using potato), but I'd rather not do
that if I don't have to.  Is there another way to do this?

thanks,
