FYI, I'm also using 2.95.3-8 (Debian version), which is a mixture of
some of the 2.95.4 patches.

To be honest, I'm about to give up on 2.95.x completely for glibc builds.
I'm currently having issues with i386 aswell (atexit again, but a
different issue).

Good luck. I've resorted to freezing my systems once I find something
that works. I used to build for 5 architectures on a whim, and now I
have left 3 of them sitting because of broken toolchains. Don't have
time to keep up with the patch of the week for gcc, so I leave it to the
porters to track their own patches and known good versions of the
toolchain.
