I just ran into this problem and a search led me to this thread, thanks.

I am running Debian 7.8 wheezy which includes glibc 2.13. I originally
used the Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise) 64bit installer from the Utah snapshot
page and got the above error.
http://www.cs.utah.edu/plt/snapshots/

I then installed with the wheezy 64bit installer from the Northwestern
snapshot page and everything worked out of the box.

Thanks everyone.
