Chad,

Please do not flood this list with 3 times the same mail. You are sending your
mails to more than 3000 people ! It takes a few minutes to the mail server
to dispatch the mails.

Fons will answer your mail later. He is currently in India.
Instead of starting the front-end program root, could you start
gdb root.exe and tell us where it stops. Send the gdb trace back
