I don't have space on this computer to upgrade the compiler libraries and
programs to those from Slackware 8.1

In order to compile, I originally installed from Slacwkare 7.1:
binutils, egcs, glibc, gmake, and linuxinc.

I upgraded my runtime libraries by installing Slackware 8.1 version 2.2.5
glibc and cxxlibs. I would like to undo this now so that I don't have a
hybrid system.

What do I need to do specifically to downgrade back to just the
glibc-2.1.3 version? Besides reinstalling glibc.tgz from SW71, is there
an equivalent package to cxxlibs, or is that included in glibc? Or is
there some other package installed by the 'install' routine of BL2 that I
need to reinstall?

I realize I will not be able to run Opera 7 after the downgrade, just 6.
