Ugh. Again, you don't read my may carefully enough.
All you need is to add 2 patches to your source RPM.

This is normal practice for packagers and you generally need not to wait
until they are included into official B1_5_Release tree.
You may probably need to write some Mandrake-specific patches because
file placement rules and configuration files markup varies from
distribution to distribution.

Please see how GLIBC, GDB or GCC looks like in your distribution.... ;-)
