Hi, the rootcint problem occurs with root compiled on RH 4.1 and 4.2. To try to debug it download the root source file and install it on one of the above systems (default Makefile setting is in debug mode so that should be ok). The bug manifests itself in libc, but the previous version of rootcint worked fine on these systems (with the same libc).
