I need the Clean compilation system working in a RedHat Linux 6.0 machine
(glibc 2.1, egcs 1.1.2). The Linux binaries provided at the Clean site
does not work on this system. So I would like to be able to compile the
Clean system myself, but I do not have access to the source code. It
would be nice if at least the Clean team make a new binary distribution
of Clean for this platform, as it seems we will not have the chance
to it ourselves.
