The toolchains are built with GLIBC 2.14. But IIRC we don't ship the libc in the binary packages (for native compilers) and it should pick up the local libc. Please run gdc with the '-v' and '-Wl,--verbose' options and post a link to the full output. > I can remove the gsl messages by statically linking to libgsl.a, > but this doesn't solve the gfortran issues. > > If anyone knows a way round these issues, I'd be very grateful. > I'd also eventually like to find a way to easily share linux > biniaries with people, so they can use this code without these > kinds of headaches.

Binaries often run on newer systems but not on older ones. You could setup debian wheezy or an older version in a VM or using docker. Or you use docker.io ;-) I personally think the docker approach is kind of overkill but avoiding compatibility issues is one of docker's main selling points.
