Thanks for replying. I did try
./configure --disable-nls
which was not effective.
I did the install following from the Slackware disk
a6/glibc1.tgz
a7/glibc2.tgz
I believe they give you glibc 2.0.7 support for Slackware.
After installing these files with PKGTOOL, I got a clean compile.
Thanks for the help anyway.
