No. Just made sure that I had a current version of /usr/src/lib installed
also. And moved ld to kernel-ld.

I keep getting bus errors (Signal 10) when trying to recompile 
during I believe linking phase, but I am not sure, for libc.a.
I haven't been able to track the problem down yet.

Separate question:
 What do I need to do to be able to rebuild a usable ld? Right now I am using
 the last distributed ld. The one I build complains about wrong Archetecture.
 The new ld.so seems to work ok, I run the shared X, just the
 static ld seems muffed.

More questions than answers @-)!
