After my initial problem with gcc 3.3, I have added a patch to glibc (and
others) thanks to Wolfgang pointing to an LFS site.  I now have two
machines with gcc 3.3, which was updated right after installing from beta3
ISO, both machines have everything working that I need (xfce4, MPlayer,
xmms, xchat2, gaim, etc.).

I never saw that error, so I think Hamish is right about old libs.
