Have you tried to change the libc ? I think GNAT require the GNU libc
5.2.* (I don't remember the last number) or above. When installing it
do not forget to rerun ldconfig and to verify that the links really
point to the new libc (As for me, I've deleted the old ones before
running ldconfig).

Waooo ! I don't think it'll be the right solution ...

Hope this can help.
