# I don't really understand how this could lead to problems: either the
# libc 2.6.1 and 2.7 are ABI-incompatible (and in this case the later

# Do you have a precise example of problems this could cause?

Yes, it's so simple, if you run current mldonkey server on Debian with
libc 2.7 it doesn't run. After I compiled debian source package it works
correctly.
