I've already show that if I want to use David Parson's
utilities (from the Mastadon distribution) I couldn't just
install libc4 from Debian, I'd have to set a whole a.out
development enviroment and compile my own libc4. What's going
to prevent that from happening with libc5?
And where's the line here? FUD just seems to be an argument
someone doesn't like, anymore.
