Cool.  That's good to know.  Is there a reason why the objdump for 
libgstreamer-0.10.so.0 would report that it requires GLIBC_2.10?  The 
other libraries that I have built with the same compiler only list that 
it needs GLIBC_2.4.

Attached is the objdump output.

Does anyone know of hand if there anyway I can remove the 2.10 
dependency through a configure option, or a compiler flag?  Or at least 
force it to a smaller version number that I specify?

Thanks,
Rodney
