I'm deciding what is best to do here. I could revert the commit that
causes this issue but it is actually the most important backport onto
the glibc-2.13 branch so far... There is also a patch on glibc bugzilla
that looks like a fix. I would like to see the upstream response before
pulling it, but might pull it anyway and push a new package to [testing]
in the knowledge that I might have to revert that patch for the approved
fix later. Expect some kind of fix in the next day once I have done
some more testing.

What ever happened to [testing] users reading this mailing list and
being competent enough to downgrade if they are affected by a bug in a
package? Maybe the big WARNING I added to the subject line will help! :P

It probably won't break everything... It is a weird bug that affects
some programs for some people but not others. It was unfortunate that
my system seems completely unaffected, including not getting the glibc
test suite failure that could have detected this.
