Mike,

I'm sorry that you had so much trouble. The systems here are RH 6.1 and
6.2 with packages updated to the latest and greatest. Except, we're still
running the 2.2.19 kernel and glibc-2.1.3.

If it makes you feel any better, I was not able to get the gettext source
rpm to rebuild for me. It kept telling me there is no gcc installed! I gave
up on that and took the requirement out of the spec file.

Anytime.
