[eclipse-dev] glibc 2.3 compatibility

I recently upgraded my os from RH7.3 to 8.0 with KDE 3.1.  After
upgrading, my eclipse installation (gtk version) didnt work.  I checked
some resources and found that my installation required glibc 2.2.  This
statement specifically referred to the gtk version, so I tried running
the motif version but it had the same problem.  

I thought maybe the dependency was a simple matter of the version the
binary download was built on, so I downloaded the source and built
eclipse locally.  The build went without hitch but when I ran the
executable I still got the same error.

Is there any way for me to get around this dependency issue?  Or might a
version built on the newer glibc be available in the near future?

A copy of the error in $ECLIPSE_HOME/workspace/.metadata/.log follows:
