thx !

mmm, almost true, it was a Mandrake (sig) and the sources taken by the
cvs repositry didn't help.

Anyway, I believe the problem was related with the glibc-devel
(the strerror function is defined in the string.h header file installed by
that package,
if I don't mistake), yesterday we compiled it on a RHL (with different
newer headers) and it worked with no problem.
