Hi, Stanislav,

Okay, I'll take a stab at it some time between tonight and tomorrow, then.

You still have access to the equipment at Scaleway, right?

BTW it shouldn't matter, but, what version of spandsp, what Linux distro,
what libc is on that host, etc.? Also, could you send me the output of "gcc
-v" and "uname -i"? Thanks.

- Larry
