+{CO} The first invocation of rpcgen is also the first use of the recently
+compiled dynamic loader.  If there is any problem with the dynamic loader
+it will more than likely fail to run rpcgen properly. This could be due to
+any number of problems.
+
+The only real solution is to debug the loader and determine the problem
+yourself. Please remember that for each architecture there may be various
+patches required to get glibc HEAD into a runnable state. The best course
+of action is to determine if you have all the required patches.
