The only things in my make.conf are NO_LPR, NOPROFILE, NO_SENDMAIL and
the Perl stuff. My libc.so.5 is current as of May 8. Kernels built since
then consistently crash, so I am currently unable to upgrade.

I looked at config.h and it says that I have stpcpy. The config.log file
shows the same:
configure:9184: checking for stpcpy
configure:9221: cc -o conftest -O -pipe -mcpu=pentiumpro -I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib conftest.c  >&5
configure:9224: $? = 0
configure:9227: test -s conftest
configure:9230: $? = 0
configure:9240: result: yes

I can't imagine where the compile is finding stpcpy if it's not in
libc.so. I'm suspicious that I have some left-over cruft that is causing
this, although I can't imagine what it might be.

Thanks!
