I've been reading /usr/src/linux/Documentation/Changes. I found two things.
First, it doesn't document changes to the kernel from patch to patch. Where
*can* I find this info? Keeping the patch files just to be able to review
what was changed is a pain.

The documentation is not entirely clear about Libc. It says you need Libc 5
version <something>. It also says you need Libc 6 version <something-else>.

What is the difference between Libc 5 and Libc 6? 
Do I need them *both* or *either*? 
According /usr/src/linux/Documentation/Changes I should do 'ls -l
/lib/libc*'. But if the version number is not encoded in the filename, that
won't help.
So, how do I find out the version number if the file is called
/lib/libc.so.6 ?
