If what you say is true then why was I able to compile mysql, qmail,
vpopmail, pine, and several other programs. This is the first program in
which I have had this problem.. all others have worked. I am using gcc
v2.95.2 if that makes any difference, and I've checked for the
existance of the include/library files in which the configure program is
looking for and they are all in the /usr/include, and /usr/lib
directories.
