I rebuilt everything that had a weak symbol reference to
pthread_mutexattr_gettype or thread_exit because those two symbols are
used for the single-thread optimization in current gnulib. The presence
of these symbols largely depends on at which point the upstream sources
you use last imported the relevant modules from gnulib, so it's probably
best to check each distribution individually. According to my notes,
for us, that was bison, findutils, nano, and gnulib itself.
Thanks for the list and the other reply. It doesn't seem quite so bad if it's only a few packages and we can fix them by rebuilding before the new libc lands.
Cheers,
