High UIDs on Debian

Hi. What is the trick to get more than 2^16 uids working on all services in potato?? I'm using kernel 2.4.14, libc6 compiled with 2.4.7 headers, lib(pam|nss)-ldap openldap, wu-imap, cuci-pop, samba, telnet, ssh... 'id' and 'getent passwd user-with-high-uid' both return the right uid
