that's my first comment, too... i mean really... compiling stuff isn't that 
hard on *nix stuffings these days... sure, you may not like it because of 
problems you've run into in the past but still... once everything is in place 
and properly referenced, compiling it is nothing compared to setting up a FTN 
system from scratch... for example

once upon a time we were compiling Mystic from source.
we are compiling synchronet from source.
we are compiling a complete firewall distribution (smoothwall) from source.
we are compiling a complete flight simulator (flightgear) from source.
we are compiling a FTN mailer (binkd) from source.
we are compiling a FTN sysop's reader/editor (golded+) from source.
we are compiling a FTN mail tosser and utilities (hpt) from source.
we are compiling a complete IDS/IPS (snort and suricata) from source.

 PQ> LTS. Keep experimenting, dood...

absolutely... once the proper libraries are in place, compiling stuff is 
nothing...

Always Mount a Scratch Monkey
Do you manage your own servers? If you are not running an IDS/IPS yer doin' it 
wrong...
.... Total is $1000. $10 for the upgrade, and $990 s/h.
