using gsrc to compile glibc results segment fault

Question

I'm using gsrc to compile glibc in order to use multiple versions of it on my machine. I'm using debian and when I tried make -C pkg/gnu/libc install -j8 it just reports this error:

Segmentation fault make: *** [sysinstall-install] Error 1

Does anyone have ideas on what this could be?

or any other ways to compile multiple versions of glibc possible.. Thanks! — Simon Zheng, Jul 06 '16 at 07:41

You didn't tell how this libc has been configured. In any case, incorrectly installing GLIBC on a system is a very easy way to render your system un-bootable. This is not recommended for novices (and you appear to be a novice).

See this answer on how that can be achieved.
