I'm in the process of upgrading from my old 1.1 Minix to 1.3.  I've got
the 1.2 compiler binaries, and I used Vince Browman's 1.1->1.2 and 
1.2->1.3 upgrade packages to generate my 1.3 sources.  At this point,
all of my files match Andy's posted crc's, but I have a problem with
libc.a.  I used the library ordering that Andy posted last year 
(1705@ast.cs.vu.nl) to make a script to build libc.a.  The script 
complained that it couldn't find a bunch of .s files.  I found a 
large number of the missing files in my 1.1 libc.a.  According to Andy
in 1587@ast.cs.vu.nl, most of the rest of my missing files are really
not needed.  That leaves one file apparently missing: return.s.  I don't
see it in 1.1 or any of the upgrade materials.  When I link things, I
get unresolved externals called .cret, .dsret, and .sret.  Could someone
who has 1.3 running check their libc.a for the presence of return.s and
drop me some mail?  If you upgraded from 1.1 and have return.s in your
libc.a, I would like to know where you got it.

Thanks!

Paul
