Re: libc6 at which rev?

What gcc version? None, but gcc 2.7.2.2 and higher support libc6,
below they don't?

> Is it at 1.3,

Oh, you mean what Debian release uses libc6 as standard? That's
Debian 2.0, also called hamm, currently "unstable". 1.3 is still
fully libc5

> or unstable?  And is there a way to force my system back down to stable,

Do you mean stable or libc5? Anyway, the solution is the same,
if you have a debian mirror (or cd mounted somerwhere), do

cd my_mirror 
dpkg -R --skip-same-version --selected-only .

(or maybe without the final .).

> without going package by package to compare them?

The above command will make dpkg do all the comparing.

Warning: compleately untested!!!
