If anyone is interested in copies of the binaries and the shared libs to go with them, I can make these available for anonymous ftp. (I will do this even if only one or two people are interested.) The compile was done on a 486 with gcc2.4.5, so any exec's which do FP math may not run on a 386 (w'out fpu). If anyone is interested, please drop me a line by email (to csgr@alpha.ru.ac.za).
