SGI: IRIX 6.2, 6.3, 6.5 [Out of date.] Should build `out-of-the-box'. On 6.5.2, zsh malloc routines are reported not to work; also full optimization (cc -O3 -OPT:Olimit=0) causes problems. If using the SGI compiler, variable length arrays need to be turned off. configure can work this out for itself if it is passed the option --enable-cflags='-LANG:vla=off -O' (combined with other flags if necessary). The zpty module is not currently supported. This causes the tests starting `Y' in the Test directory to fail, even though the features to be tested are working. -- Peter Stephenson Software Engineer CSR PLC, Churchill House, Cambridge Business Park, Cowley Road Cambridge, CB4 0WZ, UK Tel: +44 (0)1223 692070 ********************************************************************** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
