You'll run into the most problems in files which have inline alpha assembly. This needs to be converted to a format which ccc understands. Hopefully, your EMBOSS program is too high level to have inline assembly. Drew To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
