Yes. suacomp installs itself as libc.{a,so}. Of course the path to the suacomp prefix needs to be told to the compiler. Without it, interix (at least the newer versions) are near unusable, because of a whole lot of bugs M$ won't fix (as usual...). Suacomp can be installed manually by whoever likes to, and is included in the Gentoo Prefix project automatically (which is my target). I guess without Gentoo Prefix there'd be another whole lot of things missing to build git anyway (haven't tried). Gentoo Prefix also automatically get's all paths right, etc.
Currently, suacomp is already required for things like coreutils, perl, python, openssh, findutils, etc., etc. to work correctly, if not build at all...
Hope that explains some, sorry for not doing so at first :)
Regards, Markus
