Dave,

On glibc systems libc.so can't just be a symlink to libc-2.1.so.  Instead it 
has to be a linker script.  Some functions, like stat(), live in 
libc_nonshared.a rather than in the shared object.

The contents of libc.so should be:

/* GNU ld script
   Use the shared library, but some functions are only in
   the static library, so try that secondarily.  */
GROUP ( /lib/libc.so.6 /usr/lib/libc_nonshared.a )
