I wonder if the problem is really g++ 2.96 (well except if it segfault
). 
$ ldd binary
should tell you which library you need and packages.debian.org would let
you find out if those are still available in debian .
If the patch to the library are different from  redhat you can "hack" a
bit by making symlink from the debian names to the redhat ones ...



If it does not work a complete emulation could fit too :

qemu  which is included in debian . Though you might want a frontent :
i found qemu-launcher to be buggy though it is good enough to setup the
environemnt. Aterwards you can "qemu -hda virtualdisk -cdrom
installcdrom.iso -boot d"



Cheers
