glibc

Hi, I have a server running Redhat EL 4.x. I have some changes to do in the source files of libc. And now I need to build the library "libc.so.6.." and install the same.

My application finally depends on /lib/tls/libc.so.6

So, please let me know the process to build and install the "libc".

Thanks for your time and help.
