I just proved conclusively that you cannot compile (at least not easily) 
in BL2 if you upgrade the runtime libraries (.so.) to 2.2.5 but not the 
glibc used for compiling (leave that 2.1.3).  I got the same error message 
with three programs:  undefined reference to 'atexit@@GLIBC_2.0' which I 
presume is because the compiler is confused by the two non-matching 
libraries.

I was able to compile all three programs on the first try on a computer 
with runtime and compiler libraries upgraded to 2.2.5.  (I did not have 
space to do this on the other computer, and I also wanted to compile 
things that would work for the older libraries).

Lynx was compiled statically as a way around this problem.
