Your problem is that the 2.7.2.3-5 binary packages were built for RH-4.2.
Installing libc5 gcc on a glibc2 system isn't sucha good resolution.
What I have done, I took the 2.7.2.3-5.src.rpm from the redhat's site and
rebuilt it on a RH5 system. Now I have it installed on more than 5
machines and nobody came back to complain about. So it must be working
well :-). I didn't test it myself yet.
However, this was a kind of solution I had to adopt because of the big
number of machines I need to equip with g77 compilers. I think that if you
accept all the burden of recompiling c++ dynamically linked programs out
there for egcs, this is a better compiler.
