Interestingly:  I made the change you suggested, but that (alone) wasn't it.
I did find the problem: gcc and/or other packages such as the kernel source
did not get installed properly the first time I ran dselect.  I simply
reran the Install step, and the problems seemed to go away.  I did compile
a kernel, but it broke my ethernet connection, so I need to look at
that tomorrow (I'm at home now with my 0.93 system and my slow modem link).

Also, that 'cross-compiling=yes' result seems to have vanished as well
after I reran dselect.  There are still some mysteries here, 
I think.  I'll try again tomorrow morning.

Thanks.  Syrus.
