I would think it would be glibc-devel.whatever.rpm.  If you have
the "Macmillan" developer package that would explain why
you don't have it.  The "Mandrake Complete" from MacMillian came
with 3 CD's but 90% of the *-devel*.rpm's are on the second
CD from the true Mandrake 7.1 distribution but are not included
in the MacMillan copy of Mandrake 7.1.

I sent them an e-mail to this effect but they appear to be 
a "typical company" and don't care.  

Purhaps someone from Mandrake could ask them why they didn't
distribute the entire 7.1 distribution?  IN fact there aren't even enough devel rpms 
to allow you to rebuild the rpms from
the source cd to get the rest of the devel rpms you will need.
