Rob, I'm curious-- did you upgrade the linker as well? when i upgraded that
in slink, i think that is what broke my system somehow. it happened to me
twice. that is why i ended up giving up and going all the way with potato...
was sick of having to manually re-link 30 or 40 .so files. no problems now,
i'm just curious. ciao.
