Autoconf is broken in this sense, the Cray ld does not bug out if you try to link with nonexistant libraries, and autoconf thinks it has to include them. I will send a patch for this some day. > The second is that there are a couple of calls to setlimits in > exec.c which aren't protected with #ifdef's for getrlimits, which > the Cray appears to lack. I think I tried to build pre1 on a J90 (which basically is a YMP in CMOS) with Unicos 9, but I'm not sure. What version are you using? One other problem I have is that it fails to change the terminal settings (with stty) - it looks like they get reset back when stty exits (and no I don't have that option on). I think it might have to do something to do with the way it opens the terminal, but Im not sure. Bash works all right. While on the subject of supercomputers; it seem to work on a Fujitsu VX :-) /Johan
