Thanks Eric. I do not have a directory named /lib.
Then I must have some of the static lib and not all of it?

Well, the cc that I have now is GNU's, so I a presume It would be OK.
I can't get gcc compiled however, so I think I will join the gcc mailist and ask for some support.

I'll look into this.
I think that maybe you could build it in /usr/local/lib, but then you
may or may not need to use an LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/lib/libc.so.6 or
whatever in order to run GRASS programs and not have them do weird
things. I don't know for sure.
