The problem happened with an upgrade from glibc 2.1.1 to 2.1.2. If you
grab the relevant files from /lib of a machine that hasn't been
upgraded, and put them in your Office51/lib dir, then SO51 looks there
for the libs and works.

The files you need are all the -2.1.1.so files - after the upgrade you
will have -2.1.2.so files. You may also need the files symlinked to
them, e.g. libcrypt.so.1 which is linked to libcrypt-2.1.1.so
