1.4 +Status: submitted similar patch 2004-12-08
1.5 +
1.6 +This patch cleans up the initialization of thread_db. It works for static
1.7 +binaries now. The vsyscall patches hide this problem, since new static
1.8 +binaries will load the vsyscall DSO and then trigger thread_db; but
1.9 +this is still a good cleanup.
