Sorry, I should never have named a function (not even a static one) 'execvpe'.  It's amusing that I broke myself by requesting that glibc implement 'execvpe'.

Here's the webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~martin/webrevs/openjdk7/rename-execvpe/ For those following things, there are now 3 pending patches for UNIXProcessmd.c: rename-execvpe vfork-exec RESTARTABLE and there are more to come.

Hi Martin, I am having trouble building IcedTea6 on Fedora 12 (http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=1463798&name=build.log), it seems because this bug was fixed in glibc-2.10-3: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/showbug.cgi?id=10221 Do you have a patch for IcedTea/OpenJDK to get around this?

Martin,

What happened to this patch? Has it been pushed to 6/7?

Thanks,

Andrew :-)
