- Map the 32-bit VDSO to the predictable old-style address too.

- Say N here if you are running a sufficiently recent glibc
- version (2.3.3 or later), to remove the high-mapped
- VDSO mapping and to exclusively use the randomized VDSO.
+ The bug was introduced by f866314b89d56845f55e6f365e18b31ec978ec3a
+ and fixed by 3b3ddb4f7db98ec9e912ccdf54d35df4aa30e04a and
+ 49ad572a70b8aeb91e57483a11dd1b77e31c4468. Glibc 2.3.3 is
+ the only released version with the bug, but OpenSUSE 9
+ contains a buggy "glibc 2.3.2".
- If unsure, say Y.
+ The symptom of the bug is that everything crashes on startup, saying:
+ dl_main: Assertion `(void *) ph->p_vaddr == _rtld_local._dl_sysinfo_dso' failed!
+
+ Saying Y here changes the default value of the vdso32 boot
+ option from 1 to 0, which turns off the 32-bit vDSO entirely.
+ This works around the glibc bug but hurts performance.
