Nobody was talking about GLIBC, Moshe was talking about GLIB, the
library that is under GTK+, which provides safe and portable
alternatives to the libc5/6(aka glibc) and everything else. 

GLib (iirc) runs on IRIX, AIX, Windows, Linux, *BSD, DOS, BeOS, MacOS,
PalmOS, and anything else you can think of.
