unfortunately, trying to hack the link lines won't help with this. the headers and libraries are kept in sync. you can't use newer headers and try to run against older libraries. your best bet is probably to just get an older toolchain and use that to compile. or get a copy of the distro that's used in production and use that to compile the code you care about. distros often can be used in chroots so it's not like you need to reinstall the entire system. -mike
