Yes,
Running Matlab on current release will just core dump. Also tried
the fix on Matlab site where you modify the .matlab7rc.sh file. So I'm
thinking it has to be a problem with the new glibc on current releases.
This is on Fedora 3 and 4 as well. Fedora 2 sort of works but not well.

Hello all,
First time user of Gentoo. We're wanting to run Matlab R14 SP2
64bit mode. According to Matlab site they support the Linux kernel
2.6.x and glibc-2.3.2. Non of the current linux distro (i.e. Fedora)
has that old of glibc. So looking at Gentoo thinking I can build the
Gentoo system based on glibc-2.3.2.
I'm doing a stage 1 install, and not quite understanding this
portage tree stuff. I have tried to put the following in
/etc/portage/package.mask:
>=sys-libs/glibc-2.3.3
and /etc/portage/package.unmask
=sys-libs/glibc-2.3.2-r12
but bootstrapping the system is failing with deps on glibc newer than
what I want. Am I going about this wrong????
Have people reported any problems with newer versions of glibc? If not,
you should at least try a current stable version.
If you want to run an old version of glibc then it's probably easier if
you use an old portage tree. Maybe you can use an old gentoo release cd.
