The naming conventions are close enough that the a.out ld.so will mistakenly "see" the elf libraries and attempt to load them (and fail). THere are probably more of these. I think I can work around the problem in rpcgen's case with the -Y flag. Cheers, -Peter To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
