Would you need to install glibc-so from Slackware 9.0 to use this gcc?

Some packages will work if you upgrade glibc to match the Slackware 
version.  Some X programs will still not work because they need a later 
Xlib or other X library.  I just checked out xgames.tgz from Slackware 7.1 
(in BL3 with libc6 added from SW81) and some of the games work, some 
don't (something missing in one or more X libraries).
