glibc2.1 on slink?

[Paul Reavis <preavis@partnersoft.com>]

I want to run a glibc2.1 app (IBM's jdk1.1.8) on our development
machines here, but don't want to switch to potato quite yet. What's the
safest way to get glibc2.1 on my system so this program can see it? I'm
currently thinking of building it, sticking it in a corner somewhere and
writing wrapper scripts that set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include it.

Please cc: me directly; I'm not subscribed at present-

Thanks tons-
