[Bug 346691] Re: 2.6.28-11 causes massive data corruption on 64 bit installations

[Chelmite]

I installed the new kernel, 2.6.32, and still have the same problem with
the greeter, synaptic, firefox, and thunderbird getting segmentation
faults. The gdb traceback for synaptic hints that the problem is in
libc. The top of the traceback follows. It looks to my (partially-
trained eyes) that there's a problem with strncmp/strcmp for x86_64.
This may affect the kernel, but the effect I'm seeing is in programs
outside the kernel.

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
__strncmp_ssse3 () at ../sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/../strcmp.S:100
100 ../sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/../strcmp.S: No such file or directory.
