This is known. Unfortunately TLS functionality was added at the eleventh
hour and which broke ia64 in multiple places. The problems seem to be
resolved on HEAD and I think everything has been merged to RELENG_5.
However, the BETA1 was built from broken code. The upcoming BETA2 should
be good in this respect...
