In step 2 you are mv the ld and gcc command from /usr/bin to a
saved location and create symbolic links to the provided copies of ld and
gcc.  These copies do not use the 'hidden' libraries but rely only upon
the libraries provided in the package.  

Even though the oracle installer will relink using a -L /usr/lib and will
not find what it is looking for, compiled into both the gcc and ld
provided is a run path that includes the /usr/i386-glibc-2.1-linux/lib
directory so that once the oracle is relinked it will always use this path
to find those libraries.  Since the installer should be using the provided
copies of ld/gcc it will not rely upon the 'hidden' libraries.

Many people posting at http://technet.oracle.com dicussion boards have
used the solution with success.
