Just a simple question I think has been answered, but I lost it in the 
flurry of posting on C news:

Can I compile the module dbz.c into an object libdbz.a and re-link
my B news software using -ldbz?

Will this work with *no* other modifications to the B news sources?

Is it worth it?  (I think this is a big *yes*)

I plan to run C news "real soon now", but you know how these things go.
Thanks.
