It was fixed after 5.2.1-RELEASE and 4.10-RELEASE. Please see commit log also for details. So we decided to mark these port as BROKEN for them. However, an unconfirmed patch for rtld.c is available, and it is totally unsupported. At your own risk, and feedback is welcome. So, if it was fixed after 4.10-RELEASE and I don't see it in my /usr/src/UPDATING (I'm tracking RELENG_4_10) perhaps it's already available in STABLE (RELENG_4)?

If I cvsup and update my sources to RELENG_4 or RELENG_4_11, should I need to reinstall all ports (portupgrade -fa) apart from the whole world (FreeBSD base)? Thanks for shedding any light on this, Fernan
