here's the situation with drawterm, as much as i could gather in 1/2 hour:

    Linux/gcc           -- compiles with modifications, works
    FreeBSD/gcc         -- compiles with modifications, works
    SunOS 5.8/sparc/cc  -- compiles, works with a strange palette
    SunOS 5.8/sparc/gcc -- compiles with extensive modifications to mkfile
                        -- but fails with:
                error: Error 0
                ./drawterm: thr_create failed: -1 0 -1 Error 0
                abort 26810
    Tru64/cc            -- compiles with small modifications to the mkfile
                        -- and tons of warnings. shows login correctly, but
                        -- a black screen afterwards
    Tru64/gcc           -- compiles with small modifications to the mkfile
                        -- and tons of warnings. shows black screen when ran

    Irix 6.5/cc         -- compiles, untested
    Irix 6.5/gcc        -- untested


the strange colours and black screens could be due to the fact that all of
them were displayed remotely on an X11 running on linux.

the Tru64's report as OSF1/5.1
