Have you had time to look at my config.log error messages from when I 
tried to compile gs 8.50?  I got something similar when trying to compile 
SANE and had to modify every makefile.  Modifying the makefiles for gs did 
not help for some reason but I don't really know what I am doing.

Also I crashed things badly when I tried to compile a kernel module and 
don't want to risk that again soon.


If I were to compile with SW81 would the result work with BL2 and the 
upgraded glibc?  I am thinking of trying this, at least to see where the 
problem might be.
