I've discovered a problem which I believe is related to the way the header files are 
set up in probably one or more of the library 
functions.

What happens is that __bzero gets defined as an external.  I find that __bzero does 
exist in the lib functions in newer releases of 
RedHat Linux for instance - but that it does not exist in older realeases.

Now - bzero and __bzero are both depreciated and probably should be replaced with 
memset.  


I discovered this problem while trying to run a minimal demo program from the demos 
section so perhaps it is just a factor 
there.  I have been unable however to find the specific code that triggers __bzero.


So - if someone wants to point me in the proper direction I'll be happy to look at 
effecting the changes required.


Thanks.

BTW - I just subscribed to the list and I note that apparently I need to be "approved 
first" and I have no idea how long this 
process takes.  Anyone responding may wish to cc me for a day or so so I get the info.
