Why is that funny? RDS doesn't compile down to C...

I know that, but nor does 4js.

Anyway lets give some more detail here:

Thanks.
What I have is this:
A dual processor running kernel 2.6.5-7.95-smp (2xPIII tualatin
1,13Ghz 2GBRam) 4gl 7.30-UC5 (Can't afford to upgrade to a new
version) Gcc 3.3.3.41 (Everything related to gcc has this version)
Glibc 2.3.3-97 Glibc-devel 2.3.3-97 Glibc-info 2.3.3-98 ( as has
_i18ndata and _locale and _profile)

When *not* changing any kernel related environment variables and
compiling to either object or runable the error is:
/opt/informix/lib/tools/i4glc3: relocation error:
/opt/informix/lib/tools/i4glc3: symbol errno, version GLIBC_2.0 not
defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference

When setting LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.21 ( or 2.4.1 or 2.2.5) the
compiling to OBJECT goes fine, but compiling to runable gives these
errors:


The following errors were discovered during compilation.

/opt/informix/lib/tools/lib4gsh730.so: warning: the use of `mktemp' is
dangerous, better use `mkstemp'
/opt/informix/lib/tools/lib4gsh730.so: undefined reference to
`__ctype_b'
/opt/informix/lib/tools/lib4gsh730.so: undefined reference to
`__ctype_toupper'
/opt/informix/lib/tools/lib4gsh730.so: undefined reference to
`__ctype_tolower'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
/opt/informix/lib/tools/lib4gsh730.so: warning: the use of `mktemp' is
dangerous, better use `mkstemp'
/opt/informix/lib/tools/lib4gsh730.so: undefined reference to
`__ctype_b'
/opt/informix/lib/tools/lib4gsh730.so: undefined reference to
`__ctype_toupper'
/opt/informix/lib/tools/lib4gsh730.so: undefined reference to
`__ctype_tolower'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status


So it SEEMS to be a link problem, but actually setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH
(in all kinds of different version) doesn't help.

I got a mail from someone telling me they were able to compile and run
on SuSE 9.1 (kernel 2.6.4-52-default, glibc-2.3.3-97, gcc-3.3.3-41)
without problems. The binary looks working also.
BUT with 4gl 7.32.UC2

Hope anyone can shed some light here.

Didn't take my advice, I see. So, instead of telling you "physician
heal thyself", I'll give you a crazy idea: why don't you use a distro
that doesn't use either linux-2.6.x or a glibc that supports NPTL.
Problem solved. Next?
