- I patched the libraries using the interim patchlevel 26 diffs which were
- posted here. The main point is that MiNT itself uses hardly any library
- code. I must admit that I use my own patched version of scanf.c which passes
- the gcctests, I've been meaning to post it for a while now. I can't remember
- anything else I've done. I don't thing the patches in pl26 had anything to
- do with any of the functions which MiNT does use. Hmm.
-
- The other problem, of course, is that the machine with the stuff on is 15
- miles away at home, so it may take a few days to get the source to you. Will
- zoo 2.x format be ok?

- PS. I can't get this mail to you directly as your machine isn't in the NRS
- tables. Please could you give me a JANET usable address for you. (I'm having
- to bounce this message off another machine to get to you.)
