I have two 3.0-RELEASE systems here. One (w2xo) is an upgrade
from 3.0-SNAP-971225 and the other (shazam) is a clean installation
from scratch.

shazam works just fine. w2xo, however, kept complaining about missing
libraries, noteably libc.so.2.2.

I dumped the hints from ldconfig -r for a.out and the libraries
in question were there.

Upon searching the lists, etc for some hint about this
problem,I noticed that there was, or could be, a file in /etc
call objformat that defined the default object format. I tried
making this file and setting the default to a.out. Voila! No
more problems. However, I was lead to believe that this only
defined the object format output from the compiler.

I'd really like to have the compiler make elf binaries, so this
is a bad fix.

The other problem I have encountered on w2xo, not shazam, is that
binaries installed from packages fail on a kerberos error. Ports
compiled on w2xo run fine.

Thanks,
