I build what glibc builds by default. I'm not concered with additional
locales at the moment.

It is no longer build, so I assume so.

I'll leave that to the netbase maintainer to test and let me know.

ld.so is for libc5, ld-linux.so.2 is for glibc 2. Some non-i386 archs have
just ld.so though (since they never had libc5). That wont change.
