Thank you very much. I also spent quite a few hours during the weekend on setting up 6 virtual machines locally (various Fedora releases that have gcc 4.4 to 4.9, inclusive, as their "native" compiler). I got it working, but it was quite an awful experience. (For some reason I don't seem to be attracted to "system administration".) In any case, your solution appears much superior. I'd like to return to it (and hopefully start using it regularly!) later on. Thanks! Laszlo ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Don't Limit Your Business.
