I've tried to natively build 2.2.4-4 on a 712/60 with gcc-3.0. It
breaks in ./glibc-2.2.4/sysdeps/hppa/dl-machine.h at line 534:

    533       /* .eh_frame can have unaligned relocs.  */
--> 534       if (reloc_addr & 3)
    535         {
    536           char *rel_addr = (char *) reloc_addr;
    537           rel_addr[0] = value >> 24;
    538           rel_addr[1] = value >> 16;
    539           rel_addr[2] = value >> 8;
    540           rel_addr[3] = value;
    541           return;
    542         }
    543       break;
    544 

I didn't see why I may not check the two low bits... I gave up:-(
