Okay, Googled on axiom _raw_size and found the issue with
binutils. Down grading binutils sounds risky so I attempted
to change _raw_size reference in the cvs image I check out.
No luck there since no file appears to contain said variable.
Undaunted I changed my bdf.h which seemed to work but the
build gaged. So, how does one change _raw_size (or even find
for that matter and oh by the way 'grep -l -R _raw_size *'
won't do it) in a local copy of the source?
