[ANNOUNCE] glibc-2.10.1-pb1 released

[Petr Baudis <pasky at suse dot cz>]

  Hello!

  after leaving some buffer for testing, I have tagged the state
of my pb-stable fork as glibc-2.10.1-pb1. You can find it at:

	http://repo.or.cz/w/glibc/pb-stable.git?a=tag;h=glibc-2.10.1-pb1
	http://repo.or.cz/w/glibc/pb-stable.git?a=commit;h=glibc-2.10.1-pb1

...or simply clone:

	git://repo.or.cz/glibc/pb-stable.git

  I would also like to propose this version (modulo the last commit) to
be tagged official glibc-2.10.2. I'm not sure what exactly is needed now
for that to happen; I have tried to follow the generally outlined stable
policy we agreed upon.


  This is a version of glibc-2.10.1 with extra bugfixes cherry-picked
from the glibc master development branch. It does not have all the
latest bugfixes at the time of the release, but this version has been
tested for several weeks in the OpenSUSE 11.2 Factory branch.

  Two known major bug errata apply to this release. Fixes are available
but not included since they were not accepted upstream yet; users
should include them in their builds manually:

	* Race condition in free() in case MALLOC_CHECK_ is used
	http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10282
	* Major breakage in nscd locking
	http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10402
