Glibc 2.2 and potato

[Michael Meding <Michael@Meding.net>]

Hi all,

curious as I am I was wondering if it would be possible to fetch glibc
2.2. from woody and do a apt-get source --compile and then an install on
a potato system. I've heard that there are advancements when compiled
against headers of a pre 2.4 kernel. Did somebody do this out there ?
Specifically how to use then specific compiler flags for the atlhon
thunderbird / duron would be also of interest in here.

Glibc2.2 should do fine on an otherwise glibc2.13 system, or shouldn't
it ?


Thanks for any information on this matter in advance.


With best regards
