It is not that hard on a native system which is otherwise unchanged
and not in production use:
-apply the appended patch (there will be conflicts around the
 RCS ID strings which are harmless)
 altertatively, "cvs update -j1.13 -j1.14 clnt_vc.c" should
 yield the same result
-cd /usr/src/lib/libc
-make obj; make dependall
-This will take a while.
-make a backup copy of the old /lib/libc.so.12.x
-make install
-try some commands, just to test the new libc
-if everything looks fine, reboot
-if not: /rescue/mv /lib/<saved libc.so.12.x> /lib/<old name>

I should better recommend that you have a backup of your important
data...

best regards
Matthias
