Thanks to Adam.

I'm downloading the libc update as we speak.  Problem I'm noticing with
recent apt-get downloads from http.us.debian.org is that either the site
isn't up to date, or files exist but still prompt 404 errors from
apt-get.  In the case of the libc6 update, the 2.2.4-5 file isn't in the
archive, but I'm finding it at the ftp.valinux.com mirror.

Anyone know what gives with various debian mirror's statuses?

Peace.
