Actually, I took a look at the Makefile, and what is happening is that there are two versions of getbits.o. We're trying to use the a.out version (which prepends the _ to symbol names) in an ELF world (which does not require or even allow that). The patches I made make two different targets for ELF and a.out, and they make it so that things are switched over automagically. -- Lee Cremeans -- Manassas, VA, USA (WakkyMouse on DALnet and WTnet) A!
