It actually took me some time to work again on my "arm port chroot", but with glibc rebuilt with that patch the fedora openjdk works in my mandriva armv7hl builld. The patch did not work to bootstrap openjdk with gcj, and should be unrelated... so, I did "cheat" and do the dirty way of "rpm -Uvh --nodeps --noscritps" the fedora java-1.6.0-openjdk and java-1.6.0-openjdk-devel packages, then adapt to use the %post from the mandriva package; directory layout is basically the same. After building the openjdk packages with the fedora ones, then removing (again --nodeps --noscripts) and installing the generated Mandriva ones, it is right now finishing rebuilding again... So, the only thing I did not manage to do was to bootstrap with gcj; it appears only gij is problematic, usually it fails early with an "Index out of bounds" exception. I should be missing some gcc patch... > Andrew.
