Hi Chuck,

It looks like you need an "options EXEC_ELF32" option in your kernel. 
But, from what I've seen, you can't have both COMPAT_SVR4 and
COMPAT_LINUX.  They both use ELF binaries, and NetBSD can't tell a LINUX
ELF from a SVR4 ELF.  Try turning off COMPAT_SVR4, rebuild (from scratch)
your kernel, see if that works (it should).

I don't think it's possible to do BOTH SVR4 and LINUX, so you'll probably
have to make a decision (or keep two kernels - arrgg) about which one is
more important.  I use COMPAT_LINUX and it works fine for me...

Hope this helps,
	Rick
