Trying to compile apache htttpd 2.0.49.

I forgot to mention that I'm not "seeing" libc6 v2.3.2 using dselect.

Of course, once I sent the e-mail, it occured to me to try doing it 
directly via apt-get, which can indeed see the newer libc6.  Problem 
solved, although I don't understand why dselect wasn't picking it up.

Thanks,
