Compiled, yes? Then probably due to libc6 being a higher version on
woody than on potato. Try compiling it on potato and see if it works
on woody.
If it doesn't, you probably need more drastic changes to the code, in
which case the source will be different and you'll want different
version numbers. Just make sure the potato one is lower than the
woody one.
