My glibc problem...

[m.w.chang]

are you merely following the steps in the linux-sxs sites?
let me walk your steps again to be sure. still using glibc-2.2.1 that 
came with WS 3.1. so I am a good rat.

some (not most or all) of the linux-sxs articles made certain 
assumptions that's not applicable to amateurs like me. just the nail I 
hit with "sendmail from source" related to smrsh.... -_-
