Well looked into it further today. And it appears the culprit is
of all things, an few #ifndef's eval to -true- even though the functions
are prototyped properly in /stdlib.h!
Once they eval incorrectly, the game tries to install and use
Jeremy's super duper random functions.
But yes, I agree George. Wtf someone would change the lables for
oft used typedef's within the Gnu package I haven't a clue. I -will- say
that besides not working too well, the new glibc looks alot cleaner.
In any case, does anyone have a reason -why- a #ifndef statement
would eval incorrectly? I've not been able to figure this on out.
