The only program I usually use that uses libc5 is netscape and it
stopped working. There are a couple of bugs recently filed for
netscape dumping core I saw in BTS which may be related to this.
The changes between the upgrade I did Friday did not, as far as
I can tell, involve libc5 nor xlib6. From the diff between
/var/lib/dpkg/status* file, I did not see anything suspicious,
maybe other than ldso which was upgraded from 1.9.11-2 to
1.9.11-2.1.
