I fixed all this by upgrading to libc 5.3.9, then downgrading to 5.2.18 when I heard that there was a security hole in 5.3.9 (where can I find out more about this?). After moving the libc.so.5 and libm.so.5 links (what a pain; boot from floppy, etc; is there another way?), make has ceased to work properly... it (and bash too) doesn't look in the current directory when I want to execute something. this is almost definitely a configuration problem, but I don't know how to fix it. tia
