I haven't been able to make that happen:
Here's the output for apt-get:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package ldso is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
libc6-dev libc6
E: Package ldso has no installation candidate
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do you have any ideas as to whether "referred to by another package"
means that I can still get it? If so, how?

This is been a lloonngg journey. I attempted to install debian 4.0,
that is really what I wanted, but I had a mysterious network timeout
that I never could resolve. I had to give it up after a week of trying.
