No. I suspect your problems are with some library (or perhaps program)
that was compiled against a broken version of libc6 (or IIRC a library
that's not linked with -lc can cause problems, but I wouldn't swear to
that). Could you describe the problems you're seeing so that the
appropriate bugs can be filed?

That's 'unstable'. :) Try grabbing
dists/{stable,testing,unstable}/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz from any
mirror, and looking through it for a paragraph beginning "Package:
libc6"; the Filename: field there will tell you where to look.
