As for binary compatibility, I can't say -- haven't tried it. If you're compiling from source, forget the version numbers - it all depends on exactly what you need, especially when it comes to glibc. FreeBSD (even 3.x) has had support for a long time for some of the functions that are "new" to recent versions of glibc. mike To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
