But BL2 is glibc2. SW4.0 is libc5.

Not the one I am using.

Probably because it is dependent on glibc2 (libc.so.6).

Yes, the xpdf from Slackware 4.0 works in BL3.

What can it do that xli can't? I saw some reference to
xv doing postscript (which xli doesn't); however when I
tried using xv on a postscript file, it did nothing.

Neither netpbm nor xv come with BL3. xli is part of BL3.
There's no point installing xv or netpbm unless they are
superior in some way.
