I said 8.0. I know 8.1.5 works with glibc2.1 since it is explicitly stated
in its requirements that it needs it. Of course it should work with it.
However I don't really like 8i, since it needs much more (and it should be
written as MUCH MORE) resources than 8.0.5. I know there is one aspect of
using 8i on linux when compared with 8.0.5, its being free for development
purposes.
