Ah, arena 0.97g doesn't work well at all. It keeps crashing when
encounterning a JPEG. 

I went back and took a look at the 0.96s that came with Redhat
4.1 and the README is interesting:

------------------------------------------------------
This directory contains the files needed to make
an ELF dynamically linked arena 0.96s executable.
They were compiled with (ELF) gcc 2.6.4 snapshot 950310 and
CFLAGS -O2.


Assuming you have an ELF gcc, Make it with the command:

gcc -o arena arena.o libXext.so libX11.so libjpeg.so libwww.a 
-lm


Then put libXext.so.*, libX11.so.* and libjpeg.so.* in a
directory that is listed in your /etc/ld.so.conf
-------------------------------------------------------

I don't know, but maybe this sheds some light....

As long as the answer is right, who cares if the question is
wrong?
