My question was rather where this error message comes from,
since the text 'libc.so.6' is *not* in the TeXmacs binary
(please confirm by doing grep libc.so [appropriate path]/texmacs.bin).
I don't understand which program generates this message and what it means.
Can someone help?

The point here is that the error message occurs with *static* binaries,
so there should not be any dependencies on any of the distributions libraries.
So I don't think that the linux distribution is the main responsable.

I need to know who generates the error message

cannot handle file 'libc.so.6' with TLS data

Best wishes, Joris
