I don't believe libc5 was ever supported on ARM Linux, you would have to
port it. It went from libc4 to libc6 for ARM Linux.
As to it's status of development: it is dead. No one is actively
supporting (aside from a few legacy systems perhaphs).

Have you tried just using the linuxthreads part from glibc? It will most
likely involve some work.
