I am running previews of glibc for Mdk from 2.1.97 i think, and not a hang.
Now I have 2.2-5mdk, and all works fine.

The only problem was gcc2.96. Initially it was a bag of bugs. It didn't 
compile the simpler thinks in C++. But the actual rpm works fine. And the
problem upgrading gcc+libstc++ is that you have to also update many programs
that use lbstdc++. So everything will work in an upgrade to the latest
cooker, but be prepared for a heavy session of rpm'ing. It's the cost of
being update-adict (like me).
