In that case I can help. My glibc2.0.7 tree was configured with
--prefix=/usr/glibc/glibc-2.0.7.

I just use the following long command:
gcc -L /usr/glibc/glibc-2.0.7/lib \
  -I /usr/glibc/glibc-2.0.7/include 
  -Wl,--rpath=/usr/glibc/glibc-2.0.7/lib 
  -Wl,--dynamic-linker=/usr/glibc/glibc-2.0.7/lib/ld-linux.so.2

e.g. 
$ gcc -L /usr/glibc/glibc-2.0.7/lib -I /usr/glibc/glibc-2.0.7/include -Wl,--rpath=/usr/glibc/glibc-2.0.7/lib -Wl,--dynamic-linker=/usr/glibc/glibc-2.0.7/lib/ld-linux.so.2 test_sig.c -lpthread
$ ldd ./a.out 
        libpthread.so.0 => /usr/glibc/glibc-2.0.7/lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x4000d000)
        libc.so.6 => /usr/glibc/glibc-2.0.7/lib/libc.so.6 (0x4001b000)
        /usr/glibc/glibc-2.0.7/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /usr/glibc/glibc-2.0.7/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)

and the resulting program works just fine.
