If you are using a recent Linux kernel or a recent GLIBC library, and you need to continue to use the 2.4.x branch, then you are recommended to upgrade to this 2.4.7 release. * The newest kernels (approximately Linux version 4.0 and later) map vDSO into memory slightly differently for 32-bit processes running in a 64-bit Linux. DMTCP was failing to restart for such 32-bit processes. This is now fixed. * In recent versions of GLIBC, libdl/dlerror calls libc/malloc, creating an infinite recursion when we interpose using libdl/dlsym. We now implement our own dlsym and use it in most cases, thus reducing our reliance on libdl.
