Really? I just took a quick look at this, but I have to shove off for now. In initial tests, I get the different results depending on whether I'm using static or dynamic linking. But maybe it's me, I'll look more carefully later. How about pointing out the bug you found? Cheers, -- Jacques A. Vidrine <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.celabo.org/ NTT/Verio SME . FreeBSD UNIX .
