23 What Dale meant is to try installling sys-libs/glibc-2.10.1-r1. I have not
24 checked the depencencies, but the idea is that this version of glibc does
25 not depend on the new gcc, which would pull in the new glibc. So try this:
26
27 emerge -1a =sys-libs/glibc-2.10.1-r1
28
29 If it does not work, I'd try another glibc. eix sys-libs/glibc lists them
30 all.
