Yea, I got the same thing when I tried compile it under OS X. I know
HPUX has it, so I checked the man page for longjmp under HPUX, and
like OS X, it takes two parameters. So, someplace, there is a version
of the bs source that has the correct longjmp system call. But, it
may only be in the HPUX source tree. I should boot up one of my SGI's
and have a look to see if it has bs, and what version of longjmp it
uses.
