glibc and libc5
> > glibc2... you get a segmentation fault......
This is not a really hard problem to solve I belive. Any of this 
I have not tried. But I have used RedHat 5.x boxes to run libc5
programs which have the same problems. I bet a lot of money if
you do a ldd setup 
you will get libc.so.5 and libc.so.6
listed and a few other libs may be even libtermcap ?
any way you need to have almost glibc libs. make a dir /usr/glibc
Put the glibc libs in /usr/glibc directory
make this script called glibc chmod a+x glibc 
#!/bin/sh
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/glibc
export LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/glibc
$*   
and to test it run 
glibc bash
then ldd setup
to see if the libs in /usr/glibc are seen.
this may fail
so you can run glibc ldd setup
to see the list of libs
and or glibc setup just to run setup.

Note I have only done this on rh boxes to run libc5 programs
I do not run any glibc programs on suse.

Tell me if it works.
