uClibc 0.9.20 released
-----------------------------------------------------------

 CodePoet Consulting is pleased to announce the immediate
availability of uClibc 0.9.20.  his is primarily a bug-fix
release. This release remains binary compatible with 0.9.18 and
0.9.19 (as long as you leave the new UCLIBC_HAS_TM_EXTENSIONS
option disabled), so you don't have to recompile everything if
you don't really feel like it.

This release has many small improvements. At this point, most
applications that compile and work with glibc will also compile
and run with uClibc. Perl and Python even pass all the tests in
their test suites.

There is currently one notable exception. Applications that use
dlopen() to load libraries that themselves depend on other
libraries, may have weak symbols within those depended-upon
libraries resolved incorrectly. This problem is currently being
worked on.  Other than that, everything seems to now be working
as expected.... 

Updated development system images for x86, arm, powerpc, and
mipsel that are compiled with uClibc 0.9.20 have also been
released.  The dev systems have been updated to include gcc-3.3,
and now include perl 5.8.0 as well.

As usual, the uClibc 0.9.20 release can be obtained from:
