glibc-2.2.5

[m.w.chang]

I just tried compiling glibc-2.2.5 from source using a dummy COL 3.1.
I noticed that on the first make install, the localedata was not 
installed (as revealed by checkinstall).

also, the make install will always failed on libpthread,  I must reboot 
to run make install again to really finish the installation process, 
which will give me a usable part-1 glibc-2.2.5.rpm

if I run make install-locale now, it will compile more stuffs. is this 
what's supposed to be going on?

also, if is it possible to remove the old glibc before compiling and 
intsallating the new glibc? sounds like a chicken-and-egg issues (gcc 
doesn't allow that).
