Moz 1.4 (for Linux, of course) refuses to run here, complaining that my glibc is < 2.2.4. Which is true, I have glibc 2.2.3, but I wonder, am I so much behind times? What advanced features of the new C libraries does Mozilla use? :)
BTW, one of the RCs had the same issue, but it had a version for older glibc as well.

The new mozilla for Linux is compiled with GCC 3.2. I think that the precondition for that GCC is glibc >= 2.2.4. The new Mozilla also requires a Java update (I used Sun's 1.4.2) for the same reason.
You could recompile it with the older GCC/glibc. There is probably nothing in the code that prevents it from running (rc2 didn't have a problem with glibc or java AFAIK)

GCC 3.2 *does* work with glibc < 2.2.4, but you have to configure GCC with --disable-__cxa_atexit; C++ code built with such a GCC is not ABI-compatible with the default --enable-__cxa_atexit case (and has a few subtle and unfixable extra breakages).
Very probably all the Mozilla binary packages were built with a GCC configured with --enable-__cxa_atexit.

Poking around my systems, it looks like glibc >= 2.2.4 has been true for some time. Maybe time to upgrade.
