I'm using -current everything, from a "make build" a few days ago. I'll
double-check ld.so, though I'm sure it would've been installed as part of
the make install. This is a SPARCstation 20 Model 71 (75MHz
SuperSPARC-II) if it makes any difference. After looking at the core
dumps, I don't think any useful information could be obtained from them
since they occur in random places, and only occasionally. Looks like any
program has the potential to crash under sun4m.
