Then install glibc 2.1 and rebuild egcs 1.1.2. Now try to see if the old groff binaries still work. "man fopen" will do. I have no idea how to make a simple testcase out of it. Even if I did, I am afraid noone, but who work on symbol versioning in glibc, would understand what is going on. BTW, my library versioing patch is created to deal with this problem. H.J.
