Hi Satoshi,

Not sure if you saw this message.  The more I think about it, I'm not
sure bumping the shared libc version will accomplish anything other than
require a compat4x distribution for 4.2-RELEASE.  For the 4.0R upgrade
kit you'd just have to include a libc.so.5, and that would mismatch the
kernel as bad as the libc.so.4 that is currently included.
