Moved things around, and libc.so.12.114 is the culprit.  libc.so.12.114
and the currently-built libc.so.12.116 both cause the problem.
When libc.so.12.113 (which is pre-2.0) is placed in /lib (and all /lib
and /usr/lib symlinks to it are adjusted) all seems fine.

Narrowing down specific dates on libc will be forever timeconsuming as
it is a very heavy and long build.  It isn't likely I'll be attempting that :)

Let me know if I missed something else to check or if there's a better way of
narrowing down the changes that affect this.
