I know the one. I compiled it ok on libc5 and it runs alright here,
but I can't get it to compile on libc6, which would be required
for a package to be created. It uses varargs and I don't know how
to port that to something modern (I think it is approaching 10 years old
from memory).
IIRC, I grabbed the source out of the Slackware disks.
(There is a use for them after all ...)
