Hi all,

Recently, I noticed some admin scripts that use mod_perl in my setup 
just stopped working. After a lot of debugging and slamming of head to 
desk, it seems that this may well be an issue with glibc and newer Sandy 
Bridge CPUs.

I found this bug that also affected Fedora 13 and got the same test results:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=790399

Can anyone else with a Sandy Bridge CPU confirm these findings?
