Probably not, but you should be able to install a parallel version of g++ configured as a cross-compiler for an earlier libc version. I've never done this myself, so I don't know what specifically is needed, but I know cross-compiling is possible. Check the configure options for gcc/g++. You'll probably also need to install the earlier libc, as well, but obviously not as the default version that will be picked up with -lc. -- Michael A.
