Oops, that was the i386 distro!!!

When checking whether the glibc-devel-2.5-34.i386 for AS5, found at :

ftp://ftp.pbone.net/mirror/www.startcom.org/AS-5.0.1/os/x86_64/StartCom/RPMS/glibc-devel-2.5-34.i386.rpm

includes what you will need, the result was :

[root@localhost host-CentOS5.3_x86_64]# rpm2cpio 
/home/kai/Lataukset/CentOS5.3/x86_64/glibc-devel-2.5-34.i386.rpm | cpio 
-idmuvB
./usr/include/gnu/stubs-32.h
./usr/lib/Mcrt1.o
./usr/lib/Scrt1.o
./usr/lib/crt1.o
./usr/lib/crti.o
./usr/lib/crtn.o
./usr/lib/gcrt1.o
./usr/lib/libBrokenLocale.a
./usr/lib/libBrokenLocale.so
......

So the RPM should include the '/usr/include/gnu/stubs-32.h' !!!   It 
should be easy to see what
a '.rpm' has or not has via extracting it into some temporary directory 
(just like I did) and then
looking oneself...
