Making StarOffice work with glibc-2.1

["John N. Alegre" <listhub libros andante mn org>]

I am trying to hack a script that will make StarOffice 5.0 work in a glibc-2.1
envionment.  This is following some posts earlier in this list.

Here is what I did.

1. Found a virgin RH 5.2 install.
2. Copied libc-2.0.7 from that intall to /usr/local/olib
3. Made a link in /usr/local/olib from libc.so.6 to libc-2.0.7:

ls -l /usr/local/olib
total 3012
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root   root  3070220 Apr 30 14:34 libc-2.0.7.so
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root   root       13 Apr 30 14:37 libc.so.6 -> libc-2.0.7.so

4. Added /usr/local/olib to my ld.so.config
5. Ran /sbin/ldconfig
6. Wrote this script with 775 permisions:

#!/bin/sh
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/olib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/usr/local/Office50/bin/soffice

No luck.  When I run my script I get:

sh: /usr/local/olib/libc.so.6: no version information available (required by
/lib/libNoVersion.so.1)
sh: error in loading shared libraries: /usr/local/olib/libc.so.6: undefined
symbol: _dl_global_scope_end

What am I missing, all comments welcome.
