>Environment:
>Description:
Going through the include/Makefile some include files get
installed with an 'ln -sf' and some with an 'ln -s'. In
particular the i386/include files aren't forced. This means
if there's a local copy of a header file we'll never
overwrite it, leading to potential problems. In my case
the problem was caused by a stray i4b_X.h header file that
had got there from a manual install.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
Any reason why we can't apply this patch?
