Are there any newer patches available ? Best would be, if one could use -current's libc, then the header files certainly would fit better ... BTW, what about switching totally to elf ?! Then such a hack wouldn't be necessary in the future. I think ELF is currently _the_ standard. Generic compatibility to commercial applications should be one big aim ... Linux went from a.out to ELF, too. Ok, there was a must, but we should do, too.
