MapServer incompatibility with RHEL4/CE NTOS4.2

No, the linking is dynamic so you just move the executable, and it starts
using the libs on the current box.  There was some incompatibility between
libraries, so I had to remove PNG and SSL/Crypto support from the excutable
I was compiling on 7.3 before moving it over. Like I said, it ran fine on
CentOS, using CentOS' libs, but the "bug" was still there ...

J.F., 

Wouldn't the binary from the 7.3 box still be using the gd libs on the RHEL
box though, or did you statically links things.?
