Severity: grave

Since my message to debian-glibc didn't garner a response, I'm filing this 
issue as a bug.

Hello,

qt-x11-free's recent failure to build on hppa is apparently due to a glibc
problem that was allegedly, but not actually, fixed in 2.3.5-8, or has
since returned (presumably #326581 or something else that was thought fixed
by building with gcc-3.4 on hppa). The message below has a link to an
example of the build failure.

Cheers,
Christopher Martin

Please CC me on all follow-ups.

It is precisely that, a libm error that was supposedly fixed in 2.3.5-8
(but doesn't seem to have been).

Yes.  Fix glibc.
