Yes it did -- but few changes required a bootstrap because the build system was simpler. One in a while I had to do ./configure, but that was simple and quick. Now that usually doesn't work, and the only way I can get past it is to do a bootstrap. -- Dr Richard Stallman President, Free Software Foundation 51 Franklin St Boston MA 02110 USA www.fsf.org www.gnu.org Skype: No way!
