Hi,

Just for the note -- i've just sent linux glibc-2.7 buildbot to retirement.
>From now on glibc-2.11 is the requirement for official blender builds.

The reason of such bump is that environment used for glibc-2.7 builds was
officially unsupported debian lenny and compiling some of blender
dependencies became real headache there.

New environment is also using very recent gcc, which shall make slightly
better optimizations, resulting in few percent render time boost :)
