Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.2.ds1-22
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system

Upgrading from libc6 2.3.2.ds1-21 to 2.3.2.ds1-22 causes my laptop to
hang (no response from network, even magic sysrq doesn't work) at the
"unpacking files to replace libc6" stage.  I've tried this a few times
with different kernels - 2.6.12-rc3, 2.6.11-rc3 and the Debian-packaged
2.6.9-1-686 - and also with the "experimental" libc6 2.3.5-1, with the
same result.

I'm not sure whether this is a glibc or kernel bug (or both!) and I'm
not sure whether this bug severity is deserved but I figure someone
who knows more about libc than I will be able to point the bug where
it belongs :-)

Cheers,

Cameron.
