Sorry for the confusion.  I replied too fast.  Now that I've checked the
versions of libm.so in 5.X, 6.X and CURRENT I see that they have:

	5.X		libm.so.3
	6.X		libm.so.4
	7.X		libm.so.4

so you are probably trying to install a package that was compiled for
6.X on a 5.X system.  Don't do that.  It's not going to work reliably.
Use packages that have been compiled for 5.X instead.
