Yep. I should have posted to debian-alpha as well, since I'm
running slink. The problems I have are that it can't stat
svc.conf. I briefly checked with the libraries from 4.0F and I
got the same behavior. It doesn't look like it's v5.0 specific,
at least not this one. Is it (gasp!) debian-related?

Same here, except the libs are from v5.0. I'm trying this with
navigator. The machine is an AlphaPC 164SX.

I've seen this and I don't have ideas. The workaround has been to
set junkbuster as an http proxy at 127.0.0.1 at the appropriate
port (5865 for debian). Makes http work, at least.
