What is the difference between linux-a.out and freebsd-a.out? It seems file can tell the difference, but the binutils work fine without both...I just configure binutils with i386-linux and i386-freebsd and its getting confused (i.e. it can't choose a format when looking a freebsd binary...) -- marty leisner@sdsp.mc.xerox.com Member of the League for Programming Freedom (see http://www.lpf.org/) "An idea was the property of anyone who can use it" John Backus, quoted by Michael Swaine
