We really need to look into producing a suitably patched glibc
rpm. Likewise, we need to prevent gcc from generating -ve offsets
for tls as the default.

You can workaround that in userspace with:
LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.9

Set it in /etc/environment or in your kernel command line. The later depends on your setup: IMMV.
