[Bug libc/9854] New: glibc opens up new tty to print *** %n in writable segment detected ***

["walch dot martin at web dot de" <sourceware-bugzilla@sourceware.org>]

I am a user of Gentoo Linux and I found some warnings on my screen that I could
not redirect like stdout or stderr. They appear during execution of configure
scripts, like the ones from coreutils or m4 and are caused by glibc. So I wrote
a bug report on the Gentoo bug tracker. But the guys there say that everything
is as it should be:

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=257279

But I do not think, that this is acceptable. Next, I wrote to the bug-autoconf
mailing list:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2009-02/msg00006.html

and was forwarded to bug-gnulib:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2009-02/msg00103.html

and from there I was sent here:
