Use $CRT_DIR in more places. * configure.in (--with-crt-dir): Doc fix (now valid for all platforms). (CRT_DIR): On (powerpc64|sparc64)-*-linux-gnu*, default to /usr/lib64. On hpux10-20, default to /lib. * src/m/amdx86-64.h (START_FILES, LIB_STANDARD): Change the logic around, since the defaults (set by the system file) are fine in most cases. [GNU_LINUX, __OpenBSD__, __NetBSD__, __APPLE__]: Remove sections. * src/m/ibms390x.h (START_FILES, LIB_STANDARD): * src/m/macppc.h (START_FILES, LIB_STANDARD) [GNU_LINUX]: * src/m/sparc.h (START_FILES, LIB_STANDARD) [__linux__]: Remove definitions, since they are set correctly in s/gnu-linux.h. * src/s/freebsd.h (START_FILES, LIB_STANDARD): * src/s/gnu-linux.h (START_FILES, LIB_STANDARD): * src/s/hpux10-20.h (START_FILES): * src/s/netbsd.h (START_FILES, LIB_STANDARD, START_FILES_1, END_FILES_1): Use $CRT_DIR in place of fixed /usr/lib, /lib directories. * src/Makefile.in: Comment.

Usenet news is usually read from your Internet service prodider's news
server.  If you don't know the name of this server, contact your ISP.

As a guess, the name of the server might be news.yourisp.com.

Some news servers require that you enter a user name and a password.
It doesn't look like your news server is one of them.

Do you want to enter user name and password anyway?

It looks like your news server requires you to enter a user name
and a password:

Password: @variable{user-name}
