It's a very standard library.  Sometimes it is "libc.so.6", on older

You are generally safe to use it. :)

why does he need to know it? It only helps to ruin portability.

Heh.  At a guess, Arnaud is looking like he's in very early stages
of learning Linux development.  So, he's probably not exactly sure what
he does or doesn't need to know, and is doing his best with the
knowledge he has. :)
