TIA If you build profiled libraries, you wind up with a bunch of lib*_p.a libraries in the lib directories. Those are the lib*.a files built with profiling. If you build a program with profiling enabled, you get those instead of the standard ones. If you turn it off in /etc/make.conf, you should probably delete the profiled libraries you have, to avoid getting using out of data libraries if you ever build something with profiling turned on. http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
