This bugged me too - the binaries shipped with 8.0.5 are linked against
the old


glibc-2.0 and use calls which are not upwardly compatible to glibc-2.1 -
what you need to 


do is this:



    
  
  1.   Install the glibc-2.0 backwards compatibility kit (5 RPMs on the RH6
CD)

  
  2.   Get the patch from Oracle's ftp site which will update the makefiles
to relink against
the compatibility libraries (glibcpatch.tgz)






Sign up for Oracle Technet and read all about it. Several users have
posted step


by step howtos on their web pages too.



Enjoy


Dave
