So far I'd be happy at being able to run something and leave the
evaluation of gains at a theoretical level.

I'm not a very experienced Linux user, I've been using FreeBSD for longer.
At work I keep a subtree of a gentoo kernel-2.4/glibc-2.3 which I do
not update for chroot whenever I need to compile things for a 2.4
kernel.

Do you (anyone?) have any hints on the less inconvenient way to run
glibc-2.2.5 programs on Gentoo?
