+Compiling the GNU C Library for Linux/ia64
+******************************************
+
+ Please refer to the file INSTALL in the same directory as you found
+this file for general information about configuring and compiling
+glibc.
+
+ For general inquiries about glibc under Linux/ia64 please use the
+following mailing list linux-ia64@linuxia64.org or one of the relevant
+glibc mailing lists.
+
+Recommended Tools for Compilation
+=================================
+
+ In order for glibc-2.2 to build correctly on the ia64 you need at
+least the following versions of the GNU tools (the :
+
+ * The Cygnus toolchain snapshot for the ia64 as of August 4
+ including the provided set of patches.
+
+ OR alternatively you can try the following (the Cygnus toolchain is
+ the recommended solution):
+
+ * GCC and binutils, GAS and GNU LD out of CVS from
+ sources.redhat.com as of August 28, 2000 or later. The CVS tree
+ may require special patches to work properly on the ia64.
+
+Configuring and compiling GNU Libc for Linux/ia64
+=================================================
+
+ The library requires Linux kernel version 2.4.0-test4-000728 or
+later to funtion properly. Besides that it currently does not have
+support for debug and profiling libraries. Hence the following options
+are required for configuring the library:
+
+ --disable-debug --disable-profile --enable-kernel=2.4.0
+
+ It is also important that you make sure the library picks up the
+appropriate kernel header files, if you do not have recent enough
+kernel headers in /usr/src/linux/include, you should use the
+--with-headers=<path> option to specify the location.
+
+ As an example I personally use the following options to configure
+the library:
+
+ --disable-debug
+ --disable-profile
+ --disable-cvs
+ --enable-kernel=2.4.0
+ --host=ia64-linux
+ --enable-add-ons=yes
+ --prefix=/usr
+ --with-headers=/home/jes/linux/include
+
+
+Good luck
