It's true that make doesn't need to be 64-bit itself, however it _does_ need to be able to manipulate 64-bit files. That is, you want make built with support for large files so it can use stat() (or stat64() or whatever) to find information on files which are >2G. That support should be enabled in GNU make by default if configure detects that your system supports large files. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
