I am posting this for my partner who was unable to get to his computer, so please excuse any
spelling or usage mistakes.  <g>

He is having troublle re-compiling the binary kernal (not the source kern.).  The trouble is in the
libkern sub directory, and he gets an error saying a certain .a file cannot be made ( I think it is
the libkern .a or something...).  Anyway, he apparently did this once before and knows that there is
a quick fix, but cant remember what it is.  He needs help undoing the make depend that he should not
have  made for the source.

If anyone can help, that would be excellent.  He will check his email later today.  He can be
reached at cpunk@wolfe.net

Thanks in advance,


brad
