The error occurred from my WSL1 environment running Ubuntu 18.04.  
Probably my own fault for keeping bionic around.

I do have Ubuntu 20.04 under WSL2.  I can confirm 2.25.14 runs under 
focal without complaining about glibc.

Based on the email thread you linked, perhaps I should nuke all my WSL 
distros at this point and start from scratch with the latest Ubuntu (22, 
I gather).  Not sure if Alma is an option for WSL.
