   sure :/

   debian makes bug fixes later :)   
      
   only remember one CANT downgrade glibc version on gentoo, dont know if debian   
   ever tryed this with succes   
      
    JC> So what I'm planning to do is to update that instance of MBSE BBS with a    
    JC> newer build of the version (v0.92.0) that I've been running there,   
      
   make sure there is no glibc bugs in debian first, if you want to help make   
   mbse / glibc in debug mode, dont make random compiles with random fails   
      
   perferiable do not use -DPIC in gcc as default

   i think thats the real bug you have hidding there, never ever install from   
   source unless the whole os is done this way   
      
   good example is if perl is in gentoo, then dont install modules from cpan   
   direct, perl can be install 100% from cpan if it did not exists in gentoo   
   portage :=)   
      
   why is this important ?, it keeps dependice okay !   
      
    JC> Since it's a active hub node, I'm not quite certain how I'm going to do

   :-)   
      
   Janis just killed gentoo, and installed ubuntu, so it can be done :=)   
      
    JC> May just:  stop it, rename the base directory, move the existing init.d &    
    JC> xinetd.d scripts out of the way, install the debian package, then see    
    JC> about getting that to work with the old config and other files...   
      
   trial and error mode is fun, but yes make backups   
      
   upgraded/recompile gentoo is just "emerge -eDN --with-bdeps=y world" and wait   
   some days :)
