If you have the `correct' source tree, it's not difficult. Just type `make
world' and wait a few hours ;-)

It doesn't need special libraries, only libc, and perhaps zlib, if it isn't
included. You do need yacc (bison) and (f)lex.

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
