             Bug #: 14376
           Summary: glibc-2.16 strdup Illegal Instruction on sparc64
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.16
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libc
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: jengelh@medozas.de
                CC: drepper.fsp@gmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified


With glibc-2.16-75f0d3040a2c.tar.xz (openSUSE provided copy in
openSUSE:Factory:Staging:Glibc/glibc), strdup has a problem. (This did not
exist in glibc-2.16-75f0d3040a2c.tar.xz.

Mini-case:

ares:~/rpmbuild/BUILD/glibc-2.16/cc-base> cat strdup.c 
#include <string.h>

int main(void)
{
        strdup("foo");
        return 0;
}
ares:~/rpmbuild/BUILD/glibc-2.16/cc-base> gcc-4.7 strdup.c -o strdup -Wall
ares:~/rpmbuild/BUILD/glibc-2.16/cc-base> ./strdup
ares:~/rpmbuild/BUILD/glibc-2.16/cc-base> LC_ALL=C LANGUAGE=C

./strdup
Illegal instruction (core dumped)

I currently have no means to run gdb either when ld-2.16.so is use as interp
because of some weirdo error.
