The compat.linux.osrelease one needs to be removed. glibc behaves  
differently based upon the value of it. It may refuse to do anything  
if it doesn't understand the value. Changing the value of osrelease is  
only advised in experimental situations (like in  
http://wiki.freebsd.org/linux-kernel) and may result even in kernel  
panics.

Bye,
Alexander.
