Check out Beehive linux. I downloaded the iso, and installed it.
I then compiled all of my own tools without trouble. There is little
left of what I got from Beehive. The distro builder uses a standard compile
of glibc, so you can compile the latest without trouble. That is where I
have had the most trouble with other distros.
