Linux Hackers -

I'm trying to build ghostscript using gcc-2.2.2, Xv1.0, and the latest
socket patches from orest. Ghostscript used to run fine but would
hang because of the socket problems. Now, with a 2.2.2 kernel and the
patches, things are much worse. What seems to be happening is that
XOpenDisplay never returns, but exits somehow (via a longjmp?). exit
never gets called, but the process exits "normally" . I've tried
linking static and dynamic with the same results.

Is there some incompatibility between the 1.0 X libs and the 2.2.2 c
lib?

thanks for any assistance.
