A naive solution like: $ LD_PRELOAD=$HOME/libc.so.6 ./mycode results in relocation error: /home/mathieu/libc.so.6: symbol _dl_starting_up, version GLIBC_PRIVATE not defined in file ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 with link time reference > Surely, though, minor differences are not unexpected? True. I simply need to identify the correct location of the issue now. -- Mathieu
