I think your problem with -stable is library related. There were some internal changes to the libraries. In cases where appropriate, the library revision number was bumped, but this doesn't mean that your binaries can't be out of sync. Please update your sources with "current" -stable and rebuild everything including your kernel. I've been doing substantial testing with -stable (I've lost count of all of the make world's I've done), and haven't seen _any_ problems here. I've also been very carefuly about the changes I've brought in during the past weeks. I really don't think there is any real problem, but if there is, I want to know about it immediately. Thanks. -DG
