I do, too, but I was seeming to encounter errors until I went with
absolute paths. In our case, it's not a big deal because all clients
have the same username (it's not a program that is generally useful to
anyone but a small, vertical market). If this were not the case, I
would insist on everyone upgrading instead of having to jump through
these hoops. Since these boxes are not connected to the internet,
upgrading is less of an issue and harder to justify the expense since
we would have to travel to each client around the country to do the
upgrade of the OS (they are mostly computer neophytes, if not outright
illerate!).

Yes, I may need to use that, too. I will see after today's testing.
I've finally gotten glibc to compile so I can now test further...
