It's possible that one (or both) of you are suffering from the new and
improved threading model (nptl, now with green crystals) that shipped with
RH9. Sadly, it broke lots of stuff ;(
Before you go down another track, I'd reccomend that you update to the newest
RH9 kernel and glibc. Another gotcha, here : when you upgrade glibc, you
should *not* assume that you should install the i386 one. Instead, check to
see which one you currently have installed, and install that one. If you run
the following command, you can see which arch you have installed.
[root@linux10 root]# rpm -q --queryformat '%{ARCH} %{NAME}\n' glibc
i686 glibc
If you're not running a 386, don't install the 386 glibc rpm. I know it sounds
stupid, but rpm will let you do it, and up2date will happily comply.
