I'm guessing that the old libraries are getting pulled in by
proxy. For example,

old binary -> libc.so.5
-> new libtermcap -> libc.so.6

X is likely to be a problem here as well.

Now, H.J. and friends working on libc5 and ld.so1.9 have come
up with ways to get such disparate worlds to co-exist nicely,
but it seems likely that RH 4.8 has not yet been smoothed out
in this respect.

I don't know, but I would suggest that you take your problem to
the appropriate redhat list, since this is entirely a problem of
packaging.
