For what it's worth, a couple of related notes:

I found that Bug #503109 is actually about this same problem, but on the powerpc platform. In that case, the solution was to roll back, on the powerpc plotform only, the eglibc patch that triggered the behavior.

Also, here is the direct link to the git commit contianing the specific fix for this problem:
