Is there glibc-2.4 for Dapper (in repositories) ?

Here Dapper tells:

:~$ ldd --version
ldd (GNU libc) 2.3.6

or

:~$ ls /lib/libc-*
/lib/libc-2.3.6.so

Edgy has 2.4:
Kubuntu 6.10 - Taking You To The Edge

Under the Hood

* GCC 4.1
* Glibc 2.4
* Linux 2.6.17

Do you have package build-essential ?

build-essential
informational list of build-essential packages
If you do not plan to build Debian packages, you don't need this
package. Moreover this package is not required for building Debian
packages.

This package contains an informational list of packages which are
considered essential for building Debian packages. This package also
depends on the packages on that list, to make it easy to have the
build-essential packages installed.

If you have this package installed, you only need to install whatever
a package specifies as its build-time dependencies to build the
package. Conversely, if you are determining what your package needs
to build-depend on, you can always leave out the packages this
package depends on.
