I see nothing on the fP Tech website which dictates library versions,
vendors/distributions, distribution numbers, etc., for anything other than
libtermcap.

The order form strictly says "Linux".

The minimum configuration requirements page simply says "Linux" and 64MB of
RAM, 20MB of disk, as well as libtermcap.so.2.  Actually, those notes are
for 5.7; there are no notes specifically labelled as being for 5.8.

There's no mention of glibc, libxml, unixODBC, etc.

I only know a few psychics, and they tend -not- to be technical people.  :)
