Finally got around to reading through this entire thread, so now a question:

Why is there hesitance to recompile and upgrade libc6? I know just about every C program depends on it, but would the version difference be enough to break that much? If that's unknown, I'd be happy to use one of my N900s as a testing device (I have two, one used just for development/testing, that I'm happy to reflash).

Also, I just realized that this is why newest Subversion versions were segfaulting on the N900 - the default config/make configuration was to compile with NEON support (and it worked when you compiled without NEON), which judging by comments on this thread, was a feature that wasn't added in until a more recent version of GCC for this platform that what is currently default.
