Which error do you have? I've recently emerge/update system to default-linux/alpha/no-nptl/2.4, gcc-3.4.6, glibc-2.3.5-r3, 2.4.30 alpha and, as far as I remember, it was painless...

I'm not able to compile a newer glibc with this setup, but newer versions of gcc require it. I would prefer not to take this server down for several days to reinstall. First I attempted to prepare a new chroot-ed enviroment so I could just cut over once it was ready, but
2.4/2.6 incompatabilities prevent me from doing that effectively. Secondly, I thought of getting a newer glibc out of GRP to bootstrap into a new enviroment rather than building it myself. There does not appear to be a GRP for Alpha. It seems I am stuck.
Can anyone suggest an alternative to re-installation?
