Description of problem:
I am trying to use j2re 1.4.0 for the mozilla java plugin. It works just fine
under RedHat 7.2. But under 7.2.92 aka Skipjack beta 1, I get this error message
when I try to run the java command:

Error occurred during initialization of VM
Unable to load native library: /usr/java/j2re1.4.0/lib/i386/libjava.so: symbol
__libc_waitpid, version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time
reference

I tried converting from glibc 2.2.5 i686 to 2.2.5 i386, it didn't help.

I tried to use compat-glibc by using:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/i386-glibc21-linux/lib

but that failed with:

/usr/java/j2re1.4.0/bin/java: /lib/ld-linux.so.2: version `GLIBC_2.1.1' not
found (required by /usr/i386-glibc21-linux/lib/libc.so.6)



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Installed Skipjack beta1
2. Install j2re 1.4.0 rpm from java.sun.com
3. Run  /usr/java/j2re1.4.0/bin/java

	

Actual Results:  Error occurred during initialization of VM
Unable to load native library: /usr/java/j2re1.4.0/lib/i386/libjava.so: symbol
__libc_waitpid, version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time
reference


Expected Results:  Usage output
