The binaries seem to run fine, however, I've had trouble compiling programs that want to use the library. Is that supposed to work? I tried unpacking the library into .o files then remaking it and that worked better. However, some functions still cause a SIGSEGV. It seems to be varargs functions that fail, specifically vfprintf. Any ideas? If I can't fix this, I'll have to run Linux, so the stakes are high... Thanks! Jim -- Jim Williams Pixar Animation Studios williams@pixar.com Richmond, CA
