I reinstalled the binutils-2.8.0.3-1 package, now everythings seems fine
I think it was due to a bad binutils package I got from somewhere....
Yes, I removed the encaps package (ages ago :-) ).
So I think some of the binaries was f****d up !
Thanks to all who responded.
The lesson I learned was to not use RPM packages from strange sources. The
ones on ftp.redhat.com (and the very fast dutch mirror on ftp.nluug.nl) seem
to be OK.
Bas.
