It's the same version, I repacked the 2.1 version for a netscape
guy who had the same problem as you.

    Bernd> Question 1:
    Bernd>   Is there a glibc-2.0 tar.gz of the same archive?

No, and I will not make one because the final release will be ready
soon.

    Bernd> Question 2:
    Bernd>   Are there known problems with bzip? On Debian 2.1?

The pre-releases were built and bzipped on Debian 2.1/2.2, I just
tried to extract the archives and had no problems.

    Bernd> Question 3:
    Bernd>   What will I get into upgrading to glibc-2.1?

    Bernd> I fetched 
    Bernd>   ldso_1_9_11-1.deb

    Bernd>   modutils_2_1_121-20.deb

I would recommend a complete upgrade to potato.  

The only problem I have with potato is that gdb currently hangs with
threaded programs (e.g. the JDK).
