     1.5  As of linux-2.6.25, asm/page.h is no longer exported.
     1.6  This means the glibc up to and including 2.6.1 will not build against headers
     1.7 -exported from linux-2.6.25 and up. Status of glibc 2.7 and above is unknown.

    1.11 +dmalloc does not build
    1.12 +
    1.13 +This broken build has been observed for big endian ARm with glibc and NPTL,
    1.14 +and with i686 with glibc and NPTL.
    1.15 +
    1.16 +This has not been fully investigated yet. There is a name clash with strdup,
    1.17 +where it is a macro somewhere, and dmalloc tries to re-declare a strdup
    1.18 +function in dmalloc.h, but the declaration is overwritten with the macro
    1.19 +expansion, and thus the build is broken.
    1.20 +
    1.21 +The common denominator seems to be NPTL.
