    Now it would be nice to know which kernel you are using on which plattform.
    I think this happens on a UltraSPARC ? Then the answer is simple: Ignore
    it, it is ok. System call 44 and system call 69 are getuid32()/geteuid32(),
    both are not necessary on UltraSPARC. glibc tries at first the new syscalls
    on SPARC only to find out they does not exist and fall back to the old one.
    UltraSPARC always had 32bit UIDs and not 16bit like sparc32.

    RH userland is far to old to support 32bit UserIDs.

    For the final 7.3 I will patch the kernel to not print this messages.
