Random questions which may or may not be helpful - have you done a
make clean recently? Do you have pthreads installed/working? What does
./configure --with-thread say about threads? Same for config.log.
What versions of kernel & libc? It may well not work with libc5 (I
think - I don't know).

Good luck,
Michael
