Evidently he didn't make sure the Makefile worked right when compiling for stock cc; at a guess, he's passing some option that's confusing cc and making it look for the assembler with the wrong filename. > Now, I checked my original CD shipment of A/UX 2.0, and I can't find > nas anywhere under lib.

You *might* be able to get Emacs to compile with straight cc, but getting other GNU stuff to compile with cc may not be possible. Besides, GCC's optimizer is a whole lot better than cc's... -- Richard Todd rmtodd@chinet.chi.il.us or rmtodd@uokmax.ecn.uoknor.edu
