Thanks. I had Googled the issue but had not found that particular Steam Community discussion about it. I am hesitant to upgrade libc because everything else on the box is running fine, so I guess I'll just wait until there is either a patched library which can be installed locally for FoF (like the libm.so.6 solution before), or I have time to do a full OS upgrade on the box.
