Re: compile systemtap at redhat 9

[陈静相 <chenjx8 at gmail dot com>]

3ks Josh, I just want buid a cross-instrumentation host system. in
this chroot, I git kernel source as some as target system's.

I know gcc is so old.... and update it to version 4.2 and update libc.so

I will update my host system environment. 3ks...
