Ulrich:
Thanks for the reply.
This is the relevant section in my xinitrc-common: if [ -z "$XKB_IN_USE" ]; then [ -r "$sysmodmap" ] && xmodmap "$sysmodmap" [ -r "$usermodmap" ] && xmodmap "$usermodmap" fi
sysmodmap resolves to: sysmodmap=/etc/X11/Xmodmap
Are you suggesting that I post the xinitrc-common snippet and the contents of /etc/X11/Xmodmap to bugzilla.redhat.com along with the error from Xorg.0.log?
Thanks.
This means you come across a bug in xmodmap where it corrupts memory. As the message says, glibc only detects these things, it doesn't cause them. File a bug for xmodmap and show the exact input file and command line parameters.
