There have been several updated glibc releases for recent Red Hat distributions including 8 and 9. I strongly suggest first updating your Red Hat 8 or 9 system with all the current bug fixes and updates before attempting to compile anything. I definitely don't try compiling myself unless all the Red Hat bug fixes are installed on my system. Also, if you use CPAN to fetch and compile Perl modules under Red Hat 9, see Red Hat's Bugzilla bug #87682, and use the suggested workaround mentioned in that for LANG before you do anything with CPAN. Be very careful about messing with your LANG/locale settings though. I'd probably change them back to what they were when I finish downloading Perl modules off CPAN.
