Comment 3 for bug 647527

I think bug #672352 at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eglibc/+bug/672352 is also related to this bug.

It would be really nice to have a patch for it, it affects some of my colleagues.

Interestingly, on my box it raises a signal 6 instead of signal 11:

(gdb) run
Starting program: /tmp/a.out
a.out: ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/getpagesize.c:32: __getpagesize: Assertion `_rtld_global_ro._dl_pagesize != 0' failed.

Program received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.
