Earlier binutils doesn't correctly link together 2 shared libs (libgcc.so and libc.so in this case) which have the same version of a symbol, but aren't both linktime references. The PPC solution was only possible after hjl fixed a few binutils bugs. The fixes went into 2.13.90.4 and 2.13.1. IIRC the best case was binutils refusing to link glibc with some strange error message, but I think it was also possible to get a corrupted libc.so. Franz.
