It was make_include.  I thought I had executed configure but I objviously
didn't.

Did you compile on a native powerpc system or did you use a cross-compiler ?

I think the problem I am having is that configure is not setup to support
cross-compilation.  I have got a little further now by massaging the MCONFIG
file and the generate make_include file.  I will have a go at editing the
configure script and submit any changes to the utils-linux maintainer.  I
will also let the linux-embedded mailing lists know of my results.

Thanks,
Brendan Simon.
