[ale] libc5 vs libc6

[nomad at rocky.orci.com (Nomad the Wanderer)]

Ok,
  I've been fighting compiling the xawtv package.  It turns out alot
of the problem was that I had a /lib/libc.so.5 and libc.so.6.  When I 
moved it out of the way it compiled nicely.  

  I can see that libc.so.6 was installed by glibcs-rpm, but nothing
claimes to own libc.so.5.

  My question, how likely am I committing suicide by removing that?
