That's not very practicable. If you try to delete gcc and glibc you get a long lists of dependencies that will be broken - including simple apps, KDE, Xorg and whatever.. But problem solved a different way: 1. A static compile worked so the problem had to be with libc.so. 2. And of course it was - a renamed pointer (left over from trying to get Google Earth to tun a few months back). Thank anyway - and the moral of the story is that the days of frigging around with simple things (?) like gcc and glibc - have come and gone.
