A version compiled on SuSE (8.1 & 8.2) works. On Debian SID it doesn't.

Even when you copy the binary from the SuSE-System i won't work on

Otherwise i don't have any LFS problems.
e.g. i createing DVD-Images burning them (up to 4489MB) works flawlessly

Real Programmers consider "what you see is what you get" to be just as 
bad a concept in Text Editors as it is in women. No, the Real Programmer
wants a "you asked for it, you got it" text editor -- complicated, 
cryptic, powerful, unforgiving, dangerous.
