For what???

As for my problem mentioned above (old message), my script was
named 'fpc' which is also the name of a script introduced with
1.0.4 - and was called instead of my script (silly me).

Regarding smart linking:  Mandrake Linux does not only include
fpc (1.0.4) but its .rpm has smartlinking enabled!  :-)
