building glibc from dpkg source



I'm trying to recompile the glibc2 Debian package with pgcc, hopefully
to squeeze out a bit more performance.

I downloaded the *.orig.tar.gz, *.dsc, and *.diff.gz files needed,
then did a "dpkg-sourc -x glibc*.dsc" and everything unpacked okay.
Before I modified anything at all, I tried to do a "debian/rules
binary" (as root), but I get the following error:

...
Applying glibc-2.0.7-with-headers patch... 
:make: *** No rule to make target
`/usr/src/kernel-headers-2.0.36/include/linux/version.h', needed by
`/home/garman/glibc-2.0.7.19981211/build-i386/config.status'.  Stop.

I don't know why it's looking for the 2.0.36 kernel headers.  I'm
running kernel 2.2.5.

Also, I also tried a "debian/rules clean" and then tried to build the
binary again, but the same error still comes up.

Thanks for any help!
Matt
