Binaries becomes libc5 compatible only if recompiled in a libc5
environment. Anycase, using the last PERL addons, you can use libc6
binary in muLinux. muLinux is optimized in *size*, not performance.

To change the kernel is not so stupid, as someone should think,
unfortunately, because some important command simply do not works
