We wanted a sensible error message when using an old loader, but it doesn't work unless you run ld.so by hand: $ /lib/ld.so.1 ./newtest.exe ./newtest.exe: error while loading shared libraries: ./newtest.exe: ELF file ABI version invalid $ ./newtest.exe Segmentation fault (core dumped) VALID_ELF_HEADER is only used when loading a new file; it is never applied to the mapped executable when ld.so is the interpreter. -- Summary: VALID_ELF_HEADER is not used for the executable Product: glibc Version: unspecified Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: libc AssignedTo: drepper at redhat dot com ReportedBy: drow at sources dot redhat dot com CC: glibc-bugs at sources dot redhat dot com http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=5929 ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
