known libc issues - debugging is still crippled due to hardware break points 
being fire-once and lose them forever.

currently clio is under anonymous ftp abuse from a site so I've shut down

I'll re-enable it for a while.

It sounds like we need to build a bash 2.04 with either djdev203+patches 
or recent CVS
