As I neither run a license manager on Linux, or have IDL 5.4 to check 
this may
be meaningless. But I've just checked on lmgrd for IDL 5.3 and this 
appears
to be linked against libc6, ldd says : 

	libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x4001d000)
	/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)

Did IDL 5.4 lmgrd somehow go back a step?
