It is your OS vendor who is not providing strerror. All hope isn't lost, though. If you install any of the GNU packages that include the "-liberty" library, or libiberty.a (gdb, binutils, libg++), then if your system doesn't have strerror, there will be a copy in the -liberty library (this library gets versions of common routines that are either missing on some OSes or commonly used by GNU tools). -- -- Joe Buck jbuck@synopsys.com Posting from but not speaking for Synopsys, Inc.
