32bit glibc 2.30 and kernel 4.9.259: FATAL: kernel too old

hi all,

I still have a 32bit glibc 2.30 lying around to run older programs that I
did not get around to recompile. After upgrading from Kernel 4.9.255 to
4.9.259, they all fail with "FATAL: kernel too old". This seems to be a
message from the loader.

The suspicion offers itself that this is because the revision/patch number
cannot be represented with a byte any more.

Any idea what's going on and how to fix it?

Regards,

Michael Brunnbauer
