Unlike how you suspected, forcedeth is not what makes
Machine B unique, that's why it's important to report all
relevant information when making a bug reports like this
such as kernel config and compiler used.
Imagine how difficult this bug would be to figure out if
I didn't happen to know that a gcc-4.x miscompile leads to
the iproute2 behavior you are seeing?
Dave,
All machines are using the same non optimized builds. Using gcc 4,
no cflags or cxxflags are set. All machines are all using the same
versions of the software. This is done in my test lab here, sorry not to
mention that.
Binutils 2.16.1, Glibc 2.3.6, GCC 4.0.2.
