Perhaps you downgraded libc_r, or have a >version of libgnomesupport not compiled against your libc_r. My dmesg says: "FreeBSD 4.5-RC #0: Thu Jan 10 13:37:26 MST 2002" By "libc_r", do you mean the reentrant libc? I have make.conf not build that. I'll try changing that. >For grins, I'm going to email you my old libgnomesupport.a and .so.5. >They don't have a reference to strerror_r, and should work on your >system.

First I'll CVSup && tell make.conf to build everything even remotely related, if it doesn't work I will try your solution. Many dozens of thanks for your input!
