i would STRONGLY reccomend you do NOT upgrade libc6 on a potato
system without doing a full upgrade.

i run mysql 3.23.42 on a potato system, i compiled from source,
i run the same version on a woody system. it works fine ..

i tried building the packages from testing(or was it unstable)
for mysql 3.23 a while back(~6 months) and was unsucessful..lotta
dependencies..
