+You should always try to use the latest official release. Older versions
may not have all the features GNU libc requires. The current releases of
egcs (1.0.2) and GNU CC (2.8.1) should work with the GNU C library (for

new kernel features when using old kernel headers for compiling the GNU C
library.
+{ZW} Even if you are using a 2.0 kernel on your machine, we recommend you
+compile GNU libc with 2.1 kernel headers. That way you won't have to
+recompile libc if you ever upgrade to kernel 2.1 or 2.2. To tell libc which
+headers to use, give configure the --with-headers switch
+(e.g. --with-headers=/usr/src/linux-2.1.107/include).
+
+Note that you must configure the 2.1 kernel if you do this; otherwise libc
+will be unable to find <linux/version.h>. Just copy .config from your 2.0
+kernel sources to the 2.1 tree, do `make oldconfig', and say no to all the
+new options.
