This following list contains those bugs which I'm aware of. Please
|
|
make sure that bugs you report are not listed here. If you can fix one
|
|
of these bugs/limitations I'll certainly be glad to receive a patch.
|
|
|
|
Another source of information about bugs is the problem data base of the
|
|
GNU project. There is an easy to use WWW interface available at
|
|
|
|
http://www-gnats.gnu.ai.mit.edu:8080/cgi-bin/wwwgnats.pl
|
|
|
|
I would appreciate it very much if you could verify the problem was not
|
|
reported before by looking through the database. To make the information
|
|
in this database as useful as possible please report bugs always using the
|
|
`glibcbug' shell script which gets installed with GNU libc.

Severity: [ *] to [***]
|
|
|
|
|
|
[ **] There are problems with signal handling when using LinuxThreads.
|
|
|
|
[ *] The precision of the `sinhl' and/or `asinhl' function do not seem
|
|
to be the best.
|
|
|
|
[ *] The syslog function should print to the console if the LOG_CONS
|
|
flag was given.
|
|
[PR libc/72]
|
|
|
|
[ *] On Linux, the <linux/posix_types.h> is not clean enough to satisfy
|
|
the C++ namespace rules. Declaring `struct fd_set' also makes
|
|
`fd_set' available in the global namespace which conflicts with
|
|
the definition of `fd_set' in glibc.
|
|
[PR libc/79]
|
|
|
|
[ *] On Linux, there should be a way to prevent defining the symbol
|
|
NGROUPS_MAX in the <linux/limits.h> header file. In glibc it
|
|
is defined in <posix1_lim.h> which must not make the other
|
|
symbols in <linux/limits.h> available.
|
|
[PR libc/140]
|
|
|
|
[ *] The localedef program should not generate errors if for categories
|
|
which are not used for the output there are characters referenced
|
|
which are not defined in the charmap.
|
|
[PR libc/229]
|
|
|
|
[ *] The rcmd() functions (more concrete: the handling of .rhosts) does
|
|
not support netgroups and wildcards (+).
