I'll give this another look; I had tried this and I think this was
mostly working, but think I ran into some problems when using the
latest image/sources with the old VM.  (May have just been that I set
things up properly, or was using an old image as well).  I'll give it
another go for bootstrapping.

Was not aware of this; I'll also try this.

Upgrading glibc would really be a last resort (for me); I'd probably
just upgrade my distro to unstable if doing this, but I *know* things
will break.

>4/ use the nix package manager that already has a package for Pharo:
I've never tried Nix but I could give that package a shot as well.

Thanks for all of the responses!  I'm still just working by through
the Pharo by Example book, so for now I'm just focused on learning
Smalltalk, but I'll use one of the methods above, and try to put
together a package for Debian.  Someone else may want to be the
maintainer(?), but I'll do my best in getting it submitted, assuming
that I can get it working on my machine first, of course ;).

Regards,
Sloane
