OK, GLIBC_2.0 refers to glibc5 (or 4?). Anyway, the likely reason that it
is not defined in libc.so.6 is because it only supports GLIBC_2.2 (glibc
2.2.4 actually). Normally I would have expected it to be backwards
compatible, but perhaps the Debian Maintainer does things differently, in
order to keep the binaries smaller. Perhaps there is a compatibility
packages in oldlibs (libc5 package)

Warning: This is just an educated guess. Good luck
