Which linux?  what version of gcc?

Not quite.  libc.so.4 is a symbolic link to the actual library, which is
usually libc.so.4.6.5 or libc.so.4.7.2.  On my system, I have:

~% ls /lib
cpp@                 libcurses.so.0@      libet.so.1.0*
elf/                 libcurses.so.0.1.2*  libm.so.4@
ld.so*               libe2fs.so.1@        libm.so.4.6.27*
ld.so-1.5.3*         libe2fs.so.1.0*      libss.so.1@
ld.so-1.7.3*         libe2p.so.1@         libss.so.1.0*
libc.so.4@           libe2p.so.1.0*
libc.so.4.7.2*       libet.so.1@
[core:ttyp0]                                                                    ~% ls -l /lib/libc.so.4
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root           13 Sep 30 23:41 /lib/libc.so.4 -> libc.so.4.7.2*

The '*' means executable, and '@' means symbolic link.  So make sure
libc.so.4 links to a file that exists.  Otherwise, it is something else.
Good luck...
