These should work for either testing or woody. I belive trying to link programs (one of bytecode or native, I don't remember which) using ocaml compiled with old glibc on system running new glibc will cause undefined reference to __c_type_something, at least on my PLD box. So this backport is probably not going to work with testing. -- : Michal Moskal ::::: malekith/at/pld-linux.org : GCS {C,UL}++++$ a? !tv : PLD Linux ::::::: Wroclaw University, CS Dept : {E-,w}-- {b++,e}>+++ h ------------------- To unsubscribe, mail caml-list-request@inria.fr Archives: http://caml.inria.fr Bug reports: http://caml.inria.fr/bin/caml-bugs FAQ: http://caml.inria.fr/FAQ/ Beginner's list: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ocaml_beginners
