LInux is 2.4.14 and is based off a Corel Install, though after 3 years
I'd say its pretty generic. I'm trying to install 2.2.4 today along
with the latest makeinfo and msgfmt that it said were
required....thats not going well, here is my output from the
.configure and then make:

I'm not sure how to fix this one....any suggestions as I can't build
glibc until I get it fixed, hence I can't try to build gcc until
THAT's fixed....

You lost me....I'm not a C programmer here.
