Re: Weird linking-problem

   Doesn't make sense indeed. I did not expect a problem like that, since
   it compiled flawless on a libc5 system using gcc-2.7.2.?.

In ANSI C, `errno' is a reserved symbol, and you are not allowed to do
anything with it except it's anointed purpose.  This is essential to
making multi-threaded programs work possibly.
