I have been trying to compile LAM on FreeBSD4.2R with Linux emulator.
Compile itself went on very smoothly.  But, I soon noticed that some
of network related commands do not work properly.  For instance,
recon/lamboot etc.  These commands get hostnames via gethostbyname().
Somehow, they fail in detecting `localhost'.  They are looking at
/etc/hosts, /etc/host.conf and so on properly, I hope.

Another experience I had is that clock() in a simple benchmark does
not work properly on the linuxemulator.  The benchmark itself runs
perfectly in native FreeBSD and native Linux/Alpha.

So, I have some questions about the subject.
(1) Has anyone got a similar experience before?
(2) Is there any good pointer for this problem in addition to `handbook'?

# I am using the 4.2R stock linux module.

Thanks for your attention.
