This will work as long as you have the legacy libc5 libraries installed on
you system because your radiusd will link against them. However, if you
move to a new distribution that doesn't support libc5 (perhaps a later
version of RedHat) it will break.
Recompile it now while you have the luxury of both sets of libraries.

The 1812 and 1813 ports are the current RADIUS RFC ports and you should
use them as long as your RADIUS clients support these ports (or allow you
to choose which ports to use). The 1645 and 1646 ports are still very
much in use, but the RADIUS police are trying to phase them out.
