I tried to install the G77 compiler, and got the latest stuff from
testing.  It required a newer version of libc6 (2.2.4-5), which got
installed first.  Then all subsequent packages failed.  I cannot open a
shell anymore:

/bin/sh: relocation error: /bin/sh: undefined symbol: history_max_entries

Existing shells still work, but this situation paralyzes just about
anything, including apt.  What can I do?
