 I'm not so sure that it is a problem of glibc only. In my case building 
 glibc 2.3 with gcc 3.2 (release)/binutils 2.13 (release) succeeds in all 
 cases but:
 
 1. CFLAGS="-O3 -mcpu=pentiumpro -march=pentiumpro" produces a working
     glibc
 
 2. CFLAGS="-O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -mcpu=pentiumpro -march=pentiumpro"
     produces a glibc with defunct pthreads (hangs and segfaults of
     threaded processes), strace-ing these processes indicate defunct
     signal handling
 
 As it seems that "-fomit-frame-pointer" does trigger the problems it 
 could well be that there is a gcc bug.
