Actually, what I am going to do is take over this script, and have it
installed with libc6-pic. It will then be guranteed to work with that
version. Then boot-floppies can work with this however it wants to. I'll
accept and fix whatever bug reports come about.

This makes more sense because I can generate the script to work with
certain things (like the libc-x.x.x.so filename) and also remove the
backward compat crap that makes it so crufty.
