Hi!

This seems to be the glibc2-Problem. Manmathan from mjolner has given a
solution a few weeks ago, so i'll quote:

------------------------------------------

1) Create two emty objectfiles crtbegin.o and crtend.o and place it
   inside /usr/lib/

 You can do it in the following way
 -----------------------------------

 echo "manmathan1 () {}\n" > crtbegin.c
 echo "manmathan2 () {}\n" > crtend.c
 gcc -c crtbegin.c crtend.c
 mv crtbegin.o crtend.o /usr/lib/


2) Set the eviroment variable BELALINKOPTIONS to:
   -m elf_i386 -dynamic-linker /lib/ld-linux.so.2 -dc -dp -Bstatic -X

 From bash:
 ----------
 export BETALINKOPTIONS='-m elf_i386 -dynamic-linker /lib/ld-linux.so.2
-dc -dp -Bstatic -X'

 From tcsh:
 ----------
 setenv BETALINKOPTIONS '-m elf_i386 -dynamic-linker /lib/ld-linux.so.2
-dc -dp -Bstatic -X'

For me it works, only valhalla does not start.:-(
