The FreeBSD or NetBSD distribution  includes binaries and sources for
gcc/tcp/ip/NFS/X cdrom support. NetBSD offers the ability to run
 BSDI binaries and has dynamic shared libraries also it is being
 ported to different  platforms. 

Oops I forgot not mentioned no motif.

freebsd at freebsd.cdrom.com:/pub/FreeBSD
netbsd at agate.berkeley.edu:/pub/NetBSD

Currently telnet to this machine from my home machine running netbsd.
My home connection to the internet is via slip. At home my entire
X binary distribution was compiled with shared libraries.

	Enjoy,
	Amancio
