If you are not on that list, and you are using -current, then you should add yourself. Send mail to majordomo@sun-lamp.cs.berkeley.edu for more information.

It *may* work just by installing a new version of a.out.h, but it may not either. Hybrid systems are in general a bad idea. From the problem you described, it sounds almost as if you have a 0.8 version of strip(1); certainly the one in 0.9 knows how to deal with the `new' executable format. -- - Charles Hannum, mycroft@ai.mit.edu a straight dressing, mentally unchallenged, vertically unchallenged, ..., English-American of no color, no religion, and a strong mating preference for people of gender.
