Mike, You need to update your glibc package to keep up with the gcc/glibc environment if you are going to run a binary distribution. This is typically done through RPM or other OS maintenance tool. The binary distribution was compiled under the current Fedora Core 3 environment, but you can always keep your glibc/gcc up to current revisions.
