I don't know if it is possible to cross-compile. The main problem is that the glibc is very old on the Zaurus (with Sharp's ROM): 2.2.2. But the best thing to do is probably to keep an old version of awk to bootstrap, then recompile a newer version. -- Vincent Lefèvre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.org/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Arenaire project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
