well if you are not too finick about space you could just leave the older glibc files on your hard disk and write a small script to symlink the libraries you want to use depending on which - that is what i was about to do before i discovered that glibc2.3.1 worked

How would I do this, from a RAMdisk BL? I might want to leave 2.2.5 on there and also 2.3.5. Most program seem to need libc and libm and ld-linux (but this is static). Do I symlink the first two from a RAMdisk linux or while running the actual BL with all the glibcs in it?

Since I hardly ever use Abiword I could leave it in the loop version
with libc5 - can I simply chroot to it (chroot /bin/sh --login) and mount /proc ?

I could run libc5 netpbm (most of the programs) with just the above libraries and I think ld-linux 1.
