Mixing old libs with current libs...problem?

[Mark Wagnon <mwagnon@ixpres.com>]

Hi all-

Are there any problems with installing old libs on a system that also
contains their current version (libc5 with libc6)? I'm trying to build
windomaker 0.50.2, but I couldn't with the libc6 libs (I have the devs
installed too), so I am currently downloading the old libc5 versions. 
Is this cool? or did I miss the boat on something here?
