I don't know why everyone is so concerned about different distros of
linux, because linux is linux.  You might have different versions of
libraries than someone else, but you always have the power to go find
the ones you need and install them.

"stock kernel" is a red flag for me.  I'd recommend looking into
compiling your own kernel with all the options that you will need
and leave out the things you do not.

but the real issue sounds like you might have to go find some 
different versions of the libraries that myth depends on.
