Title: eloqdb6 warning message on RH Linux 9 (direct access to errno)
Document: 1081866433
Author: Michael Marxmeier
Keywords: linux,redhat,errno


Starting eloqdb6 (B.07.00) on RH Linux 9 may result in a warning message like below:
incorrectly built binary which accesses errno, h_errno or 
_res directly. Needs to be fixed.
The warning message is technically correct (some assembly code in eloqdb6 does it) but does not affect the correct operation of eloqdb6.

Background:
Recent glibc releases provide a separate errno variable for each thread. Accessing errno directly may not work correctly for applications that make use of pthreads. eloqdb6 does not use pthreads and is not affected.
