I'll let someone else commit the ELF patches which is 99% of the work. I'll add the patch for building XFree86 clients on the alpha after that. I don't think the inet_addr() changes are really necessary since libc now exports the right weak symbols so it should just be config file changes plus some server tweaks. Getting the servers running on the alpha is a different ball game altogether :-). -- Doug Rabson Mail: dfr@nlsystems.com Nonlinear Systems Ltd.
