It's not that you don't want libc references (what you would you have instead?), you need to recompile some modules so they are up to date. Point me to your work, in general I find it faster to fix these things than to figure how to explain them (I can explain afterwards), if you don't mind. I have noted your next message, I think you chopped off more than was required. ++L
