It seems sometimes that some packages fail to update soft links quite
right when they install -- this happened to me the other day with
libXext.so. Try this:

a) mv libc.so libc.so.old
   mv libm.so libm.so.old
	(we want to remember these in case we need to fix them later)
b) ln -s /lib/libc.so.5.4.33 libc.so
   ln -s /lib/libm.so.5.0.9 libm.so
	(make new soft links pointing to the files)
c) try again to do whatever caused the above messages.
                     			
If this works ok,  you can rm the .old links.
