recent ia32libs upgrade broke vmware5

[Harald Dunkel <harald.dunkel@t-online.de>]

Hi folks,

Since the 32bit libs have been upgraded, vmware5 doesn't work
anymore. The error messages are:

   Bridged networking on /dev/vmnet0/usr/bin/vmnet-bridge: relocation error: /emul/ia32-linux/lib/tls/libc.so.6: symbol _dl_starting_up, version GLIBC_PRIVATE not defined in file ld-linux.so.2 with link time reference
                                                                      failed

                                                                      failed

                                                                      failed

Any possible workarounds (except moving to pure64, please)?
