For lack of any where better to ask, I'll try chat.  Does any one know
of a working port of a BSD libc for a modern Linux (RedHat 6.x, SuSE 6.y,
etc.)  I ask because I've got some scientific code that's more or less
pure ANSI C that works just fine producing the same or nearly the same
results on FreeBSD, Solaris, Irix, and even Alpha Linux, but on i386
Linux it produces wildly different (though consistant) results.  I'm
hoping for an easy to way to figure out it it's the kernel or glibc.
