This issue seems sensitive to a number of factors, including whether transliterate mode is used, the exact input string, the system locale (!), and whether there is sufficient output space. I will attach a sample program which demonstrates this issue shortly. I have confirmed this issue on gentoo and debian distributions of libc. I tried to confirm it with CVS, but the build failed with this error: checking build system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu checking host system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu configure: error: *** It seems that you're using an old `crypt' add-on. crypt is now *** part of glibc and using the old add-on will not work with this *** release. Start again with fresh sources and without the old *** `crypt' add-on. Since this is a clean checkout from cvs, I'm not sure what it wants me to do here.

I wasn't able to enter it in the metadata, as there was no value for 2.6 in the options available for version.
