Backwards compatibility compiling
I'm trying to compile various things that want to use older libs -- whether it's trying to link to stuff that wants libc5 or older versions of tcl. I have the older versions installed as well with the alt-dev. What do I need to do to compile with these? Seems like it should be simple, but I can't find anything about how to do it.
