Yes, but I remember it was tricky, and I do remember simular error messages
as you report. I don't rememeber how I solved it, and I can't access the
'patched' code I used. (It's on an other machine, and I may have deleted
it) I was cross compiling on a WinNT4 with cygwin-B20.1 gcc-2.95.?
binutils-2.9.5.? compiling to a Linux-pc-i586-gnu system.

I think I did a very dirty hack in the code somewhere, but I can't remember
totaly.

What I do remember, is that I had a serios problem when installing it on
the linux computer. There was no error messages and I think started, but it
didn't even read the inittab file. I even tried with the debug flag turned
on, but that didn't help me much either. I resigned at this stage.... :-(

I'll check for the hacked code on my machine when I get back to it on
Thursday, but I might have deleted it.

Good luck,
Øystein
