What about linux?  RHEL3 is no longer supported by fP-Tech, aparently.
The GLIBC distribution of this NON-EOL distribution (it still gets
updates from the vendor) is not new enough to support the binaries as
distributed.  A client went to update yesterday and got a rude surprise
during installation.  GLIBC_2.4 is required and the latest this goes is
2.3.3.

Binaries for each patchlevel within the same major/minor should be built to
the same requirements.  If it were 5.7 or 6.x, I'd not have a problem with
the compatibility requirements changing.  But it's a 5.6.xx upgrade.  No
requirements should change.
