Please don't bother with 4.5.x.  4.4.4 should be considered the last
official public release before the next major number update (libc
5.x.x.)  There's no reason to update to a library that's going to
break lots of software.  There's no reason to have two separate copies
of binaries that claim to be linked with the same library (libc.so.4).

Just my opinion.
