Maybe, it's because I am using a older drops version (I'll update it 
right now),
but when I'm compiling it in l4env - mode, I get following error messages:
    ../../../lib/libxvidcore.a(xvid.o): In function `sigill_check':
    xvid.c:(.text+0x30): undefined reference to `signal'
    xvid.c:(.text+0x68): undefined reference to `signal'
    collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
    make[1]: *** [Program] Fehler 1
(I use the xvid-library, which is using the signal - function).
If I use the l4env_base - mode, another additional error occurs:
    xvid.c:(.text+0x4e): undefined reference to `_setjmp'
Seems, that these system functions are not implemented yet.

Is there any problem using the l4env_freebsd - mode?
I also can turn the signal-function of.

But still I can't use the fprintf-function. If I compile a simple 
test-program like
    #include <stdio.h>
    int main (int argc, char **argv) { fprintf(stderr, "Error\n"); 
return 0; }

in l4env-mode, I get the error message
    testprg | L4RM: [PF] read at 0x00000000, eip 0180e0ae, src 9.02
    testprg | [9.0] l4rm/lib/src/pagefault.c:78:__unknown_pf():
    testprg |  unhandled page fault

in l4env-mode, I get the error message
    simplets| Configured for 64 tasks.
    testprg | l4vfs_get_name_server_threadid(): 'name_server' not known 
at RMGR!
    simplets| l4_ts_exit_component(): Exit 9.02

starting with -l name_server:
    simplets| Configured for 64 tasks.
    simplets| l4_ts_exit_component(): Cannot exit A.02 (reserved or 
terminating)


Is there any library, that I can include or any program I have to start, 
to get
this simple program started?
