David and Warner,

Thanks for your help. I thought it was the static version so I had /usr
in another partition. I don't have time to try it today. I will do it
tomorrow and let you know. I read about the dynamically linked version
but didn't pay enough attention to it so I thought the misc directory
has a dynamically linked version. It may be better, as Jun suggested, to
put the dynamically linked version somewhere else.
