Hmm, i'm not sure if i understand you correctly here. Are you saying you've got a libcompat.so linked? This must be a very obsolete version, libcompat is supposed to only exist as libcompat.a now. Despite of this, it should always be possible to avoid libcompat with only minimal effort. All of the functions in libcompat are supposed to be obsolete -- that's why they are there (and do no longer bloat libc as you will find in many commercial systems). -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
