It may be a good idea to set up a matrix of libc-versus-xforms versions
for this so that our users can choose the one most likely to work on
their system.
Or even a download form from the web site that looks a little like this:
[------------]
Your LIBC version: | Choose One |
[------------]
Your xforms version: [------------]
[ Choose One ]
[------------]
[Download RPM] [Download Source RPM]
You choose, for example, libc-2.1.1 and xforms-0.88 and get back
the RPM or source RPM, depending on which button you press.
Or... It just might be too much work. ;-)

What is the fix?
