Being perverse, I tried installing 2.3.1-5.  I hit the same problem
that Joel mentioned previously, the old dynamic loader doesn't define
GLIBC_PRIVATE.  I was trying to install glibc privately in a prefix of
my selection.  I have been using LD_LIBRARY_PATH to select my library
path.  However, this no longer works since all system binaries are
linked using /lib/ld.so.1 and it isn't compatible with the 2.3.1
libraries.  Is there a way around this?
