You don't need to upgrade gcc or glibc.
You need to install pkg-config and glib.

Ok well putting the problems with 2.5.2p1 aside for now, I decided to
give the brand new 2.6.0 source tree a go, but it's failed during the
configure phase with this:
---- start ----
checking for pkg-config... no
checking for GLIB - version >= 2.2.0... no
*** A new enough version of pkg-config was not found.
*** See http://www.freedesktop.org/software/pkgconfig/

I don't know if it's possible to upgrade gcc and glibc on the platform
in question since the OS is pretty much a closed-book deal (and as
you'd know, Sun stopped supporting the entire Cobalt line around 2
years ago now). If anyone can confirm that they've been able to
replace gcc and glibc with newer versions, I'll give that a go. I
don't think anyone has a free gcc uprade package for the Raq servers
bit zeffie.bet or cobaltsupport.com may.
I've considered the radical option of totally replacing the OS (with
something like Strongbolt Linux) though without a spare system to try
that out on first I'm not keen to do it with my 'production' web
server. 8-)
Can anyone suggest what could be done with the 2.5.2p1 source tree to
correct the compilation problem I outlined in a previous message? I'm
not sure if the problem is due to something missing out of a header
file, or an unforseen issue with platform-specific parts of the
dgram.c code file.
Regards,
Craig.
