While I could test this easily on gentoo, I was thinking of it more as an upstream fix. I suppose one of those configure switches could be included to skip the check as well, with the default being on. Figured I'd see what you guys thought, since it does seem to be a bug that should to be addressed somehow rather than patched forever in one of the distros. --Kumba -- Gentoo/MIPS Team Lead "Such is oft the course of deeds that move the wheels of the world: small hands do them because they must, while the eyes of the great are elsewhere." --Elrond
