uname -a: OSF1 goedel2 V5.0 1094 alpha
The sysadmins here just upgraded the system software, changing the
system from 'alphaev5-dec-osf4.0f' to 'alphaev5-dec-osf5.0f'. As a
result, XEmacs doesn't build out of the box. It's easy to get it to
build -- you just pass configure the argument 'alphaev5-dec-osf4.0f'
and it works fine.
I'd be tempted to suggest adding a file src/s/decosf5-0.h consisting
only of
#include "decosf4-0.h"
and also making the appropriate change in configure, but I don't know
if there are important differences between osf4.0 and osf5.0 that need
to be taken into account. I also don't really know anything about
configure scripts, so I probably wouldn't do it quite right if I did
it myself. Anyone else?
