there is a possible patch here: http://cvs.openpkg.org/chngview?cn=34332

if that works, I'll ping back.

REG_STARTEND patch

ok, this patch makes sys-apps/file compile and work on my uclibc system.
also it does not induce noticeable regressions on my 'normal' servers.

please apply.

proposed ebuild patch

upstream has a patch for this already which i've added to the 4.20 ebuild

Well, something isn't right. The digest for file-4.20.tar.gz is bad and the
patch[1] results in a 404.


[1] ftp://ftp.gw.com/mirrors/pub/unix/file/patch-4.20-REG_STARTEND

On top of that, ftp.astron.com appears to be unavailable. Perhaps
file-4.20.tar.gz should be in distfiles?

Never mind. This problem appears to have been a local one. The 404 seems to
have been resolved as well.
