Pretty much all versions of gcc on x86_64 will require that header. It's not that glibc is not working, it's that you don't have parts of glibc installed. I'm confident that every x86_64 distro out there has the required support package in easy-to-install form because it's required to support "gcc -m32". It's just that they name it various things. > BTW, what is the address that I can type into outlook express to view this > newsgroup.

As in the URL I gave initially, you can use the keywords site:gcc.gnu.org inurl:ml inurl:"gcc-help" to restrict the seach to just the archives of this list (or other gcc mailing lists if you wish.) Fundamentally this is a mailing list, not a newsgroup, so any newsgroup interface that you find will be through a third party gateway. You can try gmane for example: <http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gcc.help>. Brian
