<li>(With valgrind versions 1.0pre4 and 1.0pre5) On Red Hat 7.3,
there have been reports of link errors (at program start time)
for threaded programs using <code>__pthread_clock_gettime</code>
and <code>__pthread_clock_settime</code>. This appears to be
due to <code>/lib/librt-2.2.5.so</code> needing them.
Unfortunately I do not understand enough about this problem to
fix it properly, and I can't reproduce it on my test RedHat 7.3
system. Please mail me if you have more information /
understanding. </li><br>

<li>
Things are likely to go badly wrong on Red Hat 7.3.92 ("Limbo"
public beta), especially with threaded programs. Don't expect
this to work. Basically valgrind won't work as-is with any
glibc-2.3 based system.</li><br>
