Wash, I still don't understand why you're using the gcc that runs in Linux compatibility mode. On FreeBSD you should have gcc2.95 in /usr/bin/gcc, you may also have gcc3 in /usr/local/bin/gcc3, depending on the packages you installed.
Check: a) What value do you have in the CC environment variable when running configure? b) What is the output of "which gcc"? That'll check that your PATH environment variable is picking up the right one. c) What value do you have in the PATH environment variable. I have just updated my FreeBSD from 4.7 to 4.8. It came with bzip2 support (though I had to select it at install time). I haven't had the chance to try the latest clam on it, and I'm about to travel to India for a couple of weeks on business so I may not be able to help you until the start of May now :-( -Nigel -- Nigel Horne.
