Shane, BTW, even though we can't support "too old" systems (it's just

Thanks, both of you! That is a huge help to me. I'm currently talking to my
host about upgrading BSD (I have successfully compiled on a 5.4 test server)
but I would like to look into trying to create my own header. I've grabbed
the glibc sourcecode...would you have any idea what files would have the
definitions, or how I could grep for it? I do some programming for fun but
I'm mostly just dangerous, especially on unix...so please excuse my
ignorance. Is there a file called jfdctfst.h somewhere?
