DMD with older versions of Linux

Dreamhost doesn't provide an updated glibc in my vps server. Is it possible to
run dmd on somewhat outdated linux distributions?

I tried running dmd from the distribution but got:

./dmd: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.11' not found (required by ./dmd)

The instaled versions are:

$ ldd --version
ldd (GNU libc) 2.7

$ uname -a
Linux ps54363 2.6.33.7-vs2.3.0.36.30.4 #23 SMP Tue Sep 28 05:47:35 PDT 2010
x86_64 GNU/Linux


If it's not possible to run the standard DMD package, could I build it from
source using those versions?

Thank you
