I agree it's not so nice that the build fails on old systems. Do you have any idea how common such old systems might be? Maybe add a configure check for getauxval, and either fail at configure time if --enable-fat is specified but we can't support it, or fall back to assuming that none of the optional features are present at runtime? Some preprocessor check of glibc version in fat-ppc.c could work too, if that's simpler. Regards, /Niels -- Niels Möller. PGP-encrypted email is preferred. Keyid 368C6677.
