I am still pretty new to Linux and might not figure how to handle symbolic 
links correctly. Carlos, do you suggest something like (okay, I don't know 
what I'm doing..)
cd $MATLAB/bin
sudo ln -s /lib64/libc.so.6 libc.so.6

Furthermore, if I remove the lines

LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.21
export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL

from $MATLAB/bin/.matlab7rc.sh,
I get a different error message when trying to start matlab:

*** glibc detected *** /usr/local/matlab704/bin/glnxa64/MATLAB: malloc(): 
memory corruption: 0x0000000000597de0 ***
======= Backtrace: =========
/lib64/libc.so.6[0x2aea9532839e]

/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2(_dl_allocate_tls+0xe)[0x2aea93b953ae]

and so on.

Maybe I should wait until more experienced Linux users run into problems 
installing Matlab on 10.1 64-bit and wait for their suggestions...
