I just tried the following git revision on alkman.ayous.org with gcc
4.3.1-6:

commit 5241e0764efd5c942216411a55e6aa6674d7ea81
Author: Otavio Salvador <otavio at ossystems.com.br>
Date:   Mon Jul 30 20:49:39 2007 -0300

    Release 1.8.7.git.2007.07.30-1

With the following result:

root at alkman:/tmp/parted/build-udeb/libparted/.libs# ldd ./libparted-1.8.so.7
        linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xa000000000000000)
        libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x2000000800114000)
        libdevmapper.so.1.02.1 => /lib/libdevmapper.so.1.02.1 (0x2000000800130000)
        libuuid.so.1 => /lib/libuuid.so.1 (0x200000080016c000)
        libunwind.so.7 => /lib/libunwind.so.7 (0x2000000800184000)
        libc.so.6.1 => /lib/libc.so.6.1 (0x20000008001cc000)
        /lib/ld-linux-ia64.so.2 (0x2000000800000000)
        libselinux.so.1 => /lib/libselinux.so.1 (0x2000000800438000)

So libunwind.so.7 also turns up with the old revision, with current
compilers on sid.

Kind regards,
Philipp Kern
