    What do you mean by dependance with kernel and glibc?

    kernel dependance on glibc? -> check /usr/src/linux/Changes

    glibc dependance of kernel? I don't know if there is any, besides
    ELF/a.out format.

    Perhaps you mean program dependance on kernel and glibc? AFAIK
    glibc dependance is most relevant, since vast majority o
    executables works fine with different series of kernels, from 1.2
    to 2.6 (assuming they support ELF/a.out format).
