 I hate to disagree, but the linux build does not build.
 whilst compiling almost all files complained of an implicit declaration to int assert(...

obviously, this resulted in:

ap_UnixApp.o(.text+0x1f5): undefined reference to `assert'
ap_UnixApp.o(.text+0x24e): undefined reference to `assert'
ap_UnixApp.o(.text+0x267): undefined reference to `assert'
ap_UnixApp.o(.text+0x295): undefined reference to `assert'
/home/rms/download/cvs/abiword/abi/src/Linux_2.4.0-test4_i386_OBJ/obj/libAbiWPAp.a(ap_UnixApp.o)(.text+0x2a3): more undefined references to `assert' follow
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

in the end.

this has been happening in the last few days. Its not the kernel, I have built abiword previously whith this kernel.
just to make myself sure, I run 'cvs -z3 co abi abidistfiles expat libpng unixfonts wv zlib libiconv' this morning. Same result.
just a few minutes ago, I run 'cvs -z3 update abi abidistfiles expat libpng unixfonts wv zlib libiconv'.
same result.

this happens with and without gnome.
