relation between gcc/glibc version and linux kernel version??


Hi

I have a very basic doubt regarding gcc,binutils and kernel. 
How closely tied are the linux kernel version and the gcc/glibc versions? and where exactly does binutils come in?
What kind of changes usually require that version x of kernel requires version y of binutils and gcc-z.
And is there any relation between compiler version used for kernel and application compilation??

For eg: can i run a system with linux-2.4.20 kernel (compiled with gcc-2.95) and have applications compiled with gcc-4 running on it?

thanks
ganesh
