I have Sun's patch cluster as of 9/11 installed. I believe this may be due to a bug in ld.so. I am attaching a copy of an email I received from someone else who appears to have the same problem. My current workaround is to use Sun's /usr/ccs/bin/ld instead of the one from binutils 2.13. Binutils version 2.13 is known to cause major problems for Solaris users. I am having other stability problems with gcc 3.2 on Solaris and will likely go back to 2.95.3. Konqueror in KDE 3.0.3 and qt-3.0.5 compiled with gcc 3.2 is unstable, for example. I was hoping 3.2 would fix a problem where I see static destructors being called in a shared library when the shared library is no longer present (causing a crash in the exit handler). This too, unfortunately sound like it might be a Solaris bug. You may have more success using binutils-2.12
