Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: libc6


In Edgy, I want to exec a program using the old pthreads implementation 
linuxthreads.
So, I exec it using the environment variable
LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.16

Whenever I try to run it, I get the following message:
error while loading shared libraries: libdl.so.2: cannot open shared object 
file: No such file or directory

I think that executing programs with old linuxthreads implementation is
needed for developers, so we can test how a program behaves in other
environments.

** Affects: glibc (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Untriaged
         Status: Unconfirmed

** Description changed:
