Greetings! I apologize if this is on the wrong BSDI newsgroup. If it is, then 
it wasn't meant to be an offensive gesture at the pride of the BSDI 
writers/users, it was a nice blunder by me. Anyway.

The server I'm working with in this case is a 486/50, running BSDI 1.1. I have 
been trying to compile GNU 'make' for quite a while, but haven't had any 
luck..this is probably related to the compiler, which is gcc v1.42, quite old. 
I am in search of somebody using BSDI, or FreeBSD, or NetBSD, or anything 
remotely compatible or that rhymes with BSDI who has GNU make up and running. 
If you do, I would GREATLY appreciate hearing from you, and would like a copy 
of your make :)

Thanks,
Sam.
