Hello! There is no need to send such email also to the web-hurd mailing list. I've only do so once or twice in the past when the emails contained information I wanted to have integrated into the web or wiki pages. But such technical questions or discussions are fine to be sent just to bug-hurd.

As Ivan Shmakov already suggested, it may work if you do a ``AWK=gawk && export AWK'' before running `cross-gnu', having gawk installed, of course. If you confirm that this works, I can add it to the `cross-gnu-env' shell script. > if I uninstall mawk & configure /usr/bin/awk to point > to gawk, I get mawk comman not found error. How to > proceed? Be sure to do a ``rm -rf $ROOT/src/glibc.obj'' to clear up the bogus files before re-running `cross-gnu'. Regards, Thomas
