Well, I guess Leon is refering to the problem with Corel Word Perfect 2000.

It is really true that if you upgrade libc6 to 2.3.2 at Libranet 2.8.1
the Corel Word Perfect 2000 stop working. I have read on another list
(Corel WP list) that it have something to do with wine and libc 2.3.2

Apart from WP2K I have not experienced any problem with libc6 2.3.2 at
Libranet 2.8.1
I have another system running Libranet 2.8.1 with libc6 2.3.2 and up to
the momento I have not experienced any problem with any other
application.
;)
