I got the same problem when I tried to upgrade libc on my
Fujitsu P-series laptop. I "fixed" it by booting a recovery
CD and copying all the /lib/* libraries provided by libc
from my backup machine to my laptop. Obviously this is
a bad idea, but it worked.
If you have any suggestions about how to track the
problem down then I am willing to experiment.
