(Is keeping the traffic on the list the accepted protocol here? Or do we cc an ever-increasing # of respondents?) This solution worked (setting the CPPFLAGS). The strange thing to me is that I didn't have to do anything extra for the 7.4 install, it "just worked." Is that something I should be concerned about or no? Thanks! Upgrading this was so quick once I got this worked out.
