SL 3.0.7 on bldlnx08 (RHEL4-64)
  2.4.21-47.EL
  2.3.2-95.39/44
OK using 18.7.0 and 20.1.0

#33 - HN link
SL 3.0.7 on bldlnx08
  2.4.21-47.EL   
 2.3.2-95.39/44

OK for 18.7.0e but not for 18.7.1 because of b->sll problem. Crashes for unknown reason w/ 20.2.0 which also occurs on noric. Elf validation in 20.2.0b yields different results between bldlnx08 and noric but yakut-test is consistent with noric. Appears to be a AMD/Intel difference exposed by 20x releases.
James is running test on RAL LCG0576 (Xeon) and
Chi-Hsiang is studying Elf

#41 - HN link
  RHEL 4      
 2.6.9-42.0.2.EL
 2.3.4-2.25
