The problem as described in http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2003-02/msg00042.html was fixed for many architectures, but not for hppa as far as I remember. See also http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-hacker/2003-02/msg00015.html I have no idea if this is related, but thought it won't hurt to mention this.
