* Fri Jul 06 2012 ajAATTsuse.de- Fix tls initialization with dlopen (bnc#770060).
* Mon Dec 19 2011 ajAATTsuse.de- Fix timezone loader overflow (bnc#735850,CVE-2009-5029) (patch tzfile-corruption-fix.patch)
* Mon Sep 19 2011 ajAATTsuse.de- Do not not trigger an abort when an i586 Intel CPU is running the i686 library, as valgrind does. [bnc#681398]
* Tue Jul 19 2011 lnusselAATTsuse.de- update crypt_blowfish to version 1.2 (bnc#700876, CVE-2011-2483)
* due to the signedness bug fix 2a hashes are incompatible with previous versions if the password contains 8bit chracters!
* Tue Feb 22 2011 pbaudisAATTsuse.cz- Fix potential removal of required local scope from shared objects marked as NODELETE [bnc#657627]
* Thu Feb 03 2011 pbaudisAATTsuse.cz- Upgrade to latest release/2.11/master - glibc-2.11.3-b72646ad0c41 - Random assortion of bugfixes, some #defines for new kernels- Retired patches: - glibc-2.11.3-bnc658509.diff - glibc-2.11.3-bso12397.diff - glibc-sparc64-fxstat.diff- Remove the NSS hack of opening modules using RTLD_DEEPBIND. This was useful for nss_ldap, since some applications used a different LDAP library with clashing symbol names. However, it also created many headaches, especially with the NSS modules not respecting malloc() overrides. Now, sssd is used by default for LDAP resolutions and we can therefore safely get rid of the hack. [bnc#477061]- Remove the currently disabled AMD string function overrides. Benchmarking did not unearth any differences that would make convincing case for keeping the functions with all the associated maintenance headaches; AMD does not recommend keeping their custom versions of the functions either.- Introduce MALLOC_ARENA_MAX and M_ARENA_MAX support [bnc#659090]- Fixed stack unwinding past glibc _fini function (proper showing of destructor backtraces) [bnc#585879]- Fix gconv cache generation on s390 [bnc#592944]- Add missing iconvconfig for refreshing gconv.cache to glibc-locale %post- Fixed stack corruption in

Note: In this glibc version, multi-arch routines DO NOT include the controversial backwards-copy memcpy().
* Wed Oct 27 2010 pbaudisAATTsuse.cz- Fix missing hconf setup in nscd - this meant `multi on` in /etc/host.conf was ignored when nscd was used, breaking e.g. resolving of multi-AF records in /etc/hosts [bnc#572188]- Fix two LD_AUDIT security vulnerabilities: spurious $ORIGIN expansion and missing setuid library check when running as setuid [bnc#646960]

* Fri Nov 13 2009 pbaudisAATTsuse.cz- Upgrade to Git HEAD as of 20091105 - glibc-2.11-13f6812ffb5b:
* New interfaces: execvpe, pthread_sigqueue, mkstemps, mkstemps64, mkostemps, mkostemps64 Implemented by Ulrich Drepper.
