I tested a Glibc upgrade in qemu.  Fresh 013 install.  InstallPackage
Scripts and Compile.  Compile DHCPCD (we need a new bin package).
InstallPackage Glibc.  D/L and sig check fine.  During SyminkProgram,
fine until ldconfig, then get "FATAL: kernel too old" error messages.
Now nothing works.  On reboot, init dies with "FATAL: kernel too old".
 I'll upgrade kernels and check again.
