Michael -- Thanks for your reply. I had not tried that. I must admit I've been a bit confused about the differences between gcc, g++, egcs, libc5 and libc6. The program I was trying to compile worked on Slackware 3.5 (libc5, I suspect) with gcc, and I seem to recall compiling it on Red Hat 5.1 (glibc/libc6). I have a much better feeling about things, now that I've gotten C and C++ to compile on my debian system. Thanks again!
