Since 5.2 also seems slower it would be better to get Koreader on PB running on GLIBC_2.9.
I'll ask at the German forum though, I guess there are enough people still on 5.2!

OK, by simply grepping GLIBC_2.* strings from 4.* and 5.* firmware update binaries, I found that 5.* firmware is targeted to GLIBC 2.9 while 4.* firmware is targeted to GLIBC 2.5. Since the original koreader for PocketBook uses some functions from GLIBC 2.7, it should work on firmware 5.* but not 4.*.
A new preview build has been uploaded to support PocketBook 4.* firmware by disabling those GLIBC_2.7 function calls.
@WS64 Could you test if 2014.11-38-preview works on your firmware 4.4?
