Jerry, execute a "dir /lib/libc-2*" on your system.  If the version numbers are not 
2.2.x, 
then that is probably your problem.

I had the same or similar problems getting Wisp-Dist to compile/make on Redhat 9.  I 
traced my problem to the version of glibc that was on the system.

The README in the Wisp-Dist build directory has the following entry:

1) Machine running linux 2.4 kernel and glibc 2.2.x.

My system Redhat 9 had/has glibc 2.3.2 (ie NOT 2.2.x) installed.  I believe Redhat 9 
ships with glibc 2.2.5.  But Redhat Network updates has changed the glibc to 2.3.2.

Anyhow, I switched to another system(s) running Redhat 7.2 and 7.3.  The 7.2 system 
has glibc 2.2.4 and the 7.3 system has glibc 2.2.5.  The Wisp-Dist build process 
completes okay on those systems.
