Thanks.  This was also suggested to me off list.  It seems to be just
the ticket.

Some of this software's environment setup is also "uname sensitive" so
basically I must do:

 linux32 /bin/bash

Before building, setting the environment or running.

The only remaining problems I have seem to be due to the more strict
GCC 4.3 that is now standard on lenny.  But that problem is not for
this list.

Thanks for all the help.

-Brett.
