Actually I made some headway with building alpha tools on i386 current by tweaking the bfd.h which came out of configure. When I get back from my trip, I will have another look at it. While you are in this area, how about importing binutils 2.9.x? It fixes a bunch of ELF linking problems for i386 at least and probably others. -- Doug Rabson Mail: dfr@nlsystems.com Nonlinear Systems Ltd.
