It's a very standard library. Sometimes it is "libc.so.6", on older Linux's, it can be "libc.so.5".
You are generally safe to use it. :)
why does he need to know it? It only helps to ruin portability.
Heh. At a guess, Arnaud is looking like he's in very early stages of learning Linux development. So, he's probably not exactly sure what he does or doesn't need to know, and is doing his best with the knowledge he has. :)
