Unfortunately glibc is not forward compatible, and unfortunately there is no way to restrict yourself to an older version of glibc. I only know of two ways to build a program which only relies on glibc 2.2. The first and simplest is the one you mention: do the build on a glibc 2.2 system. The second is to build a cross-compiler to a glibc 2.2 system; this is most easily done using crosstool. Ian
