Probably glibc is dependent on functionality (syscalls and kernel interfaces) only available in the newer kernels. I doubt it's possible to lower that requirement, without substantial rewrite, or by losing some functionality that userland software now depends on. > Alternatively, would you consider having a separate binary glibc package on > i386/amd64 with minimal version set back to 2.6.16? Maybe some other libc could more easily do this, perhaps dietlibc? That would still require recompilation of binaries though I think? Then it makes more sense to just rebuild for kfreebsd natively. Or otherwise hope that FreeBSD linuxulator can add support newer syscalls of 2.6.32 and later.
