Do you know for sure that it breaks things? I'm about to install

I can verify some PHP breakage (phpwiki's use of gdbm seems to do a number on the glibc upgrade, while other dba_XX() backends seem to be unaffected; rolling back fixes it). Search bugzilla.redhat.com for bugs filed against glibc, and you'll see a few others (wine, Netscape Communicator).
$ rpm -qp --changelog glibc-2.3.2-4.80.src.rpm | head -14
That's the one. Most of my servers and desktops are fine with it, but I have a webserver that has to have a working phpwiki using gdbm storage, and I've had to roll that one back to glibc 2.2. Once RHL 9 comes out, I'll see if I have the same problem there (since I've got at least one machine ready to be my guinea pig for the release ;-).
(This is a call for help, btw: if anyone else is seeing this particular issue, I would love a little help putting together a reproducable test case that doesn't involve half the phpwiki source code, to help the RH folks track this down a little faster. Time to start reading through the glibc 2.3 changelog...)
