Compile errors for twiddler and a2x

   Can anyone help me decipher the problem with compiling these under
debian etch and the 2.6 kernel? Is it just the gcc version (4.0.3)?

    When I try to run the executable twiddler, I get "bash:
/usr/bin/twiddler: No such file or directory" -- although twiddler is
there and is executable, and the /etc/twid_defaults.ini is in place and
world readable, so I assume that there must be some other file it's
looking for and can't find.
  And if I try to run a2x I get:
a2x: can't load dynamic linker '/lib/ld.so nor /usr/i486-linux/lib/ld.so'
  And there is no /lib/ld.so, and of course no /usr/i486-linux/lib/ld.so

   Surely someone has been through this before, although I've numerous
searches on the archives to no avail thus far.

Here's the output of running make for twiddler:

gcc -O3 -DA2X_COMMANDLINE='a2x -a -b -U' -DDEFAULT_DEVICE='/dev/ttyS0'
-DDEFAULT_INI_FILE='/etc/twiddler_defaults.ini' -DDEFAULT_X_VT=7
-DBLANK_DEFAULT=20 -s -o twiddler twid.c
twid.c: In function ‘open_serial’:
twid.c:672: error: ‘TIOCM_DTR’ undeclared (first use in this function)
twid.c:672: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
twid.c:672: error: for each function it appears in.)
make: *** [twiddler] Error 1

  And here is is for a2x (the xmkmf seems to work okay):

rm -f a2x
gcc -m32 -o a2x -g -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing       a2x.o -lXmu -lXt -lSM
-lICE -lXext -lX11 -lXtst  -lXext -lX11   -lm
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXtst
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [a2x] Error 1
