Ok, this looks like an easier solution.  Even if this solution works, it
be more sound to use the version 4.2 library or even aquire the version
4.0.  I wouldn't worry about it unless you have problems that can't be
explained or duplicated by others.  Thanks Kevin!

I exchanged e-mails with another list member back in February 
covering this very issue.  My guess is you're probably running 
Slackware 7.

That's all it takes.

This tip was passed on to the Rebol Documentation Department via 
feedback (trouble ticket #2207), but may not have made it to the 
official install docs yet.
