Known Issues
------------

The --preload option does not always work.  The preload1 test currently fails.

quick2 test will fail if you do not have static libc installed.

IFUNC on glibc.  glibc appears to have a bug related to specific IFUNC
ordering.  build_local_scope in glibc is processing depth first instead of
breadth-first processing as it should be.  The prelink-rtld version works
around this issue.  (Prelink-rtld is only available in the cross compile
version.)  See:

https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9131

ARM & PPC: both are currently failing the reloc8 and reloc9 test
Further investigation is in progress on these items.  Until an explanation
is found, you should hold off using this for ARM and PPC.
