The biggest issue on gsyprf11 is the filling of the log file with page
faults.  I've more or less given up running the gcc testsuite because
expect almost always seems to get into a state where it causes an
enormous number of page faults and then hangs when when the /var
file system is full.  I have noticed that various pthread test
programs in the libstdc++ testsuite also cause many page faults.
It's possible this problem is specific to 64-bit machines.

There haven't been as many random seg faults recently.

Has anybody worked on the various "dl-" routines in glibc/sysdeps/hppa
recently?  That's probably where the dynamic loader problem lies.
