The 3.1R system which results from a "sysinstall" has an important difference from the one that results from a "make world": in the first case, the a.out libraries (the compat22 distribution) are installed under /usr/lib/compat/aout; in the second case, these libraries go into /usr/lib/aout. Some packages (such as netscape-4.08) fails to install under a "sysinstalled" 3.1R system because the package installer checks for the presence of the a.out libraries under /usr/lib/aout. Another problem: the 3.1R sysinstall does not populate the /usr/mdec directory; however, a "make world" does.
