I just built a .deb on faure, but lintian complains about a bad libc.

   faure:/usr/home/jrv/src$ lintian *deb
   E: pcx: compiled-with-bad-libc usr/bin/PCx

This is the __register_frame_info problem:

   N:
   N:   This file defines or requires `__register_frame_info' as a dynamic
   N:   symbol, and is not linked with libstdc++. This means that it was
   N:   compiled with a buggy version of libc. It should be recompiled with
   N:   the fixed versions, libc6 2.0.7u-6 or higher. (which may not yet be
   N:   available; see debian-devel).
   N:
   N:   This was a problem in the second half of 1998. If you get this tag
   N:   much later than that, it may be a different problem. Please check with
   N:   the lintian maintainer in that case.
   N:

Is this error message bogus?  If it's real, is there a fixed version
of libc that can be installed?
