I'm going to run a "make world" on thud tonight and then rebuild I still have libg++ and libforms on my list of things to change (I think libncurses was done yesterday). Should we bump the version number _every_ time the interface is changed or extended? This would be easiest to remember to do, but would result in many more minor version numbers and recompiling. Bumping the major number is more important. It's not clear how 2.0 packages work with the current libg++ (gnuregexp was removed). Bruce
