It's not a problem, per se.  I just thought you would appreciate knowing that
the
software doesn't compile out of the box, and thought I would tell you what I did
to
get it to compile.

First, it requires the use of the system 'cc' compiler as gcc has some issues
with a
few of the system headers which are required for this code.

Second, it misconfigures and believes that certain of the POSIX thread functions
are
not found or not working.  I hacked configure to not really check for these and
was
able to get it working.

Third it doesn't know to link in some of the appropriate libraries for Digital
UNIX.
I supplemented the line containing -lpthreads in each Makefile with the
following:
-lpthread -lpthreads -lmach -lexc -lc        as per the Digital web site.  You
can
find more information if you are interested at:
http://www.unix.digital.com/faqs/publications/base_doc/DOCUMENTATION/HTML/AA-Q2DPC-TKT1_html/thrd00001.html

Otherwise the compile ran without a hitch.

Thanks!

Karl
