FWIW, I've been using 2.6.6 headers for a while now (over a month) in
hopes of finding as many bugs related to the headers as I can... so I
thought I'd share some info about that for more adventurous users...

using linux-headers-2.6.6 (no longer in portage), I was able to build
sys-libs/glibc-2.3.3_pre20040420 with +nptl, and have seen no problems
crop up from it.

I have since moved on to linux26-headers-2.6.6-r1 with
glibc-2.3.3.20040420 (+nptl) and have had no issues with it during this
past week...

Now, I can't quite figure one out... I tried upgrading to
linux26-headers-2.6.7, but that causes glibc compilation to segfault in
each of 2.3.3_pre20040420 - 2.3.4.20040605-r1 glibc versions I tried...
does anyone have any thoughts on this?

One thing about the headers... asm-sparc/signal.h needs '#include
<linux/compiler.h>' but a patch hasn't been placed in the
linux26-headers since it isn't keyworded yet... without that, glibc will
complain that linux/sysctl.h is broken on emerge even though it isn't...
