If determining the specific cause of this problem by someone who

developer of the game itself is not feasible, then my question is this:
Is it possible to isolate the pieces specific to FC1 and use them in
some sort of artificial environment on FC2? If that is possible,
perhaps the game server could be tricked into believing that the system
was actually FC1. That assumes, of course, that this isn't some kernel
related issue which certainly cannot be circumvented.
You can e.g. unpack FC1 glibc into some subtree and run the game against
that glibc instead.
1) make sure vdso=0 is passed on the kernel command line
2) mkdir ~/fc1glibc; cd ~/fc1glibc; rpm2cpio ~/glibc-2.3.2-101.4.i686.rpm | cpio -id
3) run the game with
~/fc1glibc/lib/ld-linux.so.2 --library-path ~/fc1glibc/lib /the/game arguments
You can also try booting 2.4 kernel instead of 2.6 one.
