There is this (german) forum > thread about it: iirc sarge was the one with the unfixable 2MB text pages, generating gigantic vDSOs.

There was only a narrow window where binutils were broken such, but that release unfortunately hit it. -Andi - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
