Was it SRC or Cambridge or some other implementation? :-) Anyway, about glibc2 support, I just spotted the following message in comp.lang.modula3: ============================================================================= Tue, 06 Jan 1998 07:47:59 comp.lang.modula3 Thread 4 of 10 Lines 25 Preliminary glibc2 support for Cambridge Modula-3 Richard Watts <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> at epona (really rrw1000.sel.cam.ac.uk), Preliminary glibc2 support is now available for Cambridge Modula-3. It can be obtained from: ftp://epona.ucam.org/pub/users/rrw/software/cam3-glibc2-patches/ These patches haven't been widely tested as yet, so be careful. Many thanks to Rajat Datta <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and Michel Dagenais <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. This is a fairly straightforward port, so other distributions should find it reasonably easy to apply (it's mainly template hacking). Anyone with a previous version of these patches is encouraged to upgrade - older versions had a bad declaration of struct_tm which caused tetris (among other things) to segfault. This version should be fixed - I've been over all the files in m3core/src/unix/linux-libc6. Please report the inevitable errors to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Richard. - - (SUBST O 1 0.3 1.0 1.0 (2 3)) (Type O 2 "TextID"1.0 1.0) (ABS O 3 "foo" 1.0 1.0 (6)) (SubstID O 4 "2.2" 1.0 1.0) (NullID L 6 "foo" 1.0 1.0 (4)) (TextID L 5 "x" 1.0 1.0) ============================================================================= If you are still busy, and if you don't mind, could you send me the Debian diff files? I would like to give it a shot to build the Cambridge Modula-3 and see how it works. :-) Thanks! (And thanks for packaging up Modula-3 for Debian! It must have been a lot of work! :-) Cheers, Anthony -- Anthony Fok Tung-Ling [EMAIL PROTECTED] Civil Engineering http://www.ualberta.ca/~foka/ University of Alberta, Canada Keep smiling! *^_^* -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
