This should, in theory, be possible. Kylix links against Qt and some additional CLX runtime libraries, which are covered under a dual-lisenced: if you pay for Kylix you get a commercial lisence for Qt and CLX, if you use the Open Kylix version you get GPL'd copies of the license. As far as I can tell, the problem with Kylix on FreeBSD is the IDE itself, using customized WINE-like libraries internally, and has nothing to do with the output of the compiler/linker. It does sortof assume you have glibc, but I don't think there are any issues with Kylix that don't exists with Linux-built gcc/gld binaries. --Mike --f2QGlHpHGjS2mn6Y Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE/osIRCczNhKRsh48RAoe1AKCTW5i2rQj9KLh4KPiHKummY6EG4gCgt9Mp 9fGODjyb3rRfdEqlSokog/U= =5Of0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --f2QGlHpHGjS2mn6Y--
