You can try requesting this, I suspect the request won't be answered ... I guess creating a new devel/linux-glibc2.4 is the best solution then (Surprised it doesn't already exists actually).
Thank you for your response!

1) Vendor does not actually support FreeBSD I think, but maybe I should ask for statically compiled binaries. I think this is not going to happen, like you say.

2) Linux LibC's are builtin on the linuxbase packages, of course. No devel/linux-glibc2.4 available...

3) I should try using linuxbase-fc8 and see what happens or take an example of a port requiring libc > 2.3.6, if I can find one (googleearth?)

Cheers.
