That *is* what I am using now.

Sorry .. I'll have to dig into this later .. like next week. Thus far
however I have put too much time into it this weekend and still have never
seen ppl compile and work once, ever, in the last few years it has never
worked even once on a standard Solaris server. That is a very poor track
record given that I can generally make most things work well on Solaris.
Very very frustrating to work with ppl but I'll take another crack at it
.. next week.
