OK, I'm back after re-installing my system.

It appears that gtty and stty are defined in the header libc.h (which is on my system), however I cannot locate the archive libc.a anywhere on my system.  I suspect that this may be the problem, can someone confirm this?

Does anyone know where to get libc.a?  Would it work if someone emailed it to me (off list, of course)?
