At the risk of sounding ignorant, or stating the obvious, I'd say the
problem is with the shared library. It was compiled against libc5.
When you try to run it on RH5.1, the shared library cannot find libc5.
You should do one of two things:
1) install libc5 on the RH5.1 system
or
2) recompile the shared library on the RH5.1 system so that it
links correctly against libc6 (aka glibc).
I'd go for option 2 myself.
