Steven, I'm as lost as you are... I asked about the minor include problems
earlier on this list and got a poitner to c.o.l.n., which solved the minor
ones... but I hit the same problems as you with that one.  I thought that
the lib line was funny as well (don't know why.  no real reason), but I
also can't figure out what to tack on anymore..  I switched the include
from string.h to asm/string.h, and that produced a different set of
errors... so.. :I

Linux 1.3.80 *(bleeding edge! yeah)*, pppd 2.2.0e.  Is this potentially a
kernel problem in the /linux/include directory, by any chance?  anyone
tried compiling 2.2.0e on a 1.2.13 kernel?  (maybe i'll do that here
shortly.  hmm)
