   Hey, I know this (I think).  This comes from libs or executables that
are compiled with glibc-2.1.x and are attempting to run on a glibc-2.0.x
system; ie., __register_frame_info is defined in glibc-2.1.x and not in
2.0.x.  I've run into this error since trying to revert back to the
2.0.x series:  seems like too many programs don't like 2.1.1.  Hope this
helps
