I know there are problems with (at least) ncurses and StarOffice.  I've
heard of more conflicts, but don't have specifics.

Theoretically, glibc-2.1 should be backwards compatible with glibc-2.0, so
there shouldn't be too many problems.

I guess the answer at this point is "try it out and let us know if it
works!"  :)
