No, the static abiword does not work with my modified BL2 
(2.4 kernel, glibc 2.3.6).  I replaced it with the dynamic 
abiword 1.0.7 binary (the last version based on gtk1).

The only other problem I had with the new kernel/library 
was the static mplayer. It lost the ability to do DNS 
lookup.  That means it fails to parse alphanumeric URLs.
Numeric URLs continue to work.

I got around this by writing a wrapper (bash script) for 
mplayer that converts alphanumeric URLs before calling 
mplayer.  Let me know if you want a copy.

Cheers,
Steven
