Thanks Paul.
 So does that mean that more or less the only way to fix this up is to get
an executable compatible with RH 9.0s libraries? I mean, as you said the
idea of installing gcc 2.95.3 will be of no use. And I don't think I know
of a way by which I could make this executable use the other version of
whatever libraries it needs. 
 Any advice on this or would you say: Get the new compilation. Of course,
had this been so easy and sure, I would have tried doing this first rather
than finding roundabout solutions..

thanks,
