OK, that makes some sense. It looks like I will have to change the code.

Yep, Linux uses it in glibc 2.1.3. I guess that broken by it too, but I
don't have a late enough version of gcc/egcs to find out. I imagine that
people using RedHat 7 could try the test program, to find it if it is
affected too, because it has a later version of glibc.

Looks like I'll have to change the header. Thanks for the help! Bye,
