Hi,
Many libraries, like glibc, are backwards compatible when we link it
against an older version, it also works when it runs with a more recent
version of the library. The OpenWrt SDK is build against an old Debian
so it can be used with such an old systems, but it also works with a
recent Arch Linux for example.
