Can only guess.

What compat libraries do you have installed?  The possibly-relevant ones
appear to be:

compat-glibc-2.3.4-2.26
compat-libf2c-34-3.4.6-4
compat-libgcc-296-2.96-138
compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-138
compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-61

First and last seem most likely.

If the above and the vendor fail to help, you might want to consider one
of the various virtualization options.
