Nope. Get the core library from ftp://sourceware.cygnus.com/pub/glibc/ and
the latest add ons (linuxthreads, crypto) from ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/.
Note that the version numbers don't match! You'll also need the source of
the latest 2.1.xxx linux kernel for its headers. And get at least
egcs-1.0.3a for compiling the library, older gccs don't work. egcs is at
http://egcs.cygnus.com.
In any case, the latest stable kernel is 2.0.36, consider updating that one
first. Or go for development kernels.
Good luck!
