Problem when upgrading to GLIBC 2.2.5

[Frank Krauss]

Hello Andreas,

I decided to follow your advice concerning this problem.
I updated my Binutils to 2.12 which went fine.

I then restarted the upgrade of GLIBC to 2.2.5 from scratch.
The configure options that I used were the following:
    --enable-add-ons
    --with-headers=/usr/src/linux/include
    --prefix=/usr
    
The configure and make both went fine.
During the "make check" is where I got the following message:
  /elf/filter: error while loading shared libraries: libgcc_s.so.1: cannot open 
shared object file: No such file or directory

This file "libgcc_s.so.1" does exist on my System.
it resides in /usr/local/lib and was installed as part of my upgrade
of GCC to 3.0.4.

While searching the Net for this message, I came across a similar
problem from a Mark Kettenis around 10/1.  His description was:-
    Conserning GCC-3.0.1 can't compile Glibc-2.2.4

This appears to be practicaly the same problem as mine since I'm 
using GCC 3.0.4 to compile Glibc-2.2.5.
His problem had something to do with DWARF-2 opcodes and was very
technical.  Unfortunately for me, no one in the Thread gave any mention
of how to correct or get around this problem.

I have enclosed the last lines from the Console output.   

If you would, could you please tell me what I have to do to continue
with my Upgrade of Glibc?

Your assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated by me since I
see your name mentioned all over the Net as an expert in GLIBC matters.

Yours truly,

Frank Krauss

P.S. 
   Andreas Schwab from your Company sent me a note describing the 
   cause of my original Error 139 message as being made by the famous
   Signal 11 problem.
   Please thank him for me for giving me this information.
   The only thing strange about this is that when I looked in my
   /var/log/message file, I could see no mention of a Signal 11 problem.
