21.1.13 build problems (minor) on Tru64 Unix

A couple of minor problems building 21.1.13. Configuration command: configure --without-gcc --with-gnu-make '--cflags=-fast -std' --with-site-lisp --site-includes=/usr/local/include First, configure refuses to recognize V5.0, so I had to build on an old V4.0e system. Second, I regex.c would not compile. Type mismatch for alloca. I edited regex.c and modified line 289 which was "char *alloca" to "void *alloca". That was the only compiling problem, but it failed several times in building the finder database. For some reason about 5 files in my /usr/local/lib/xemacs/xemacs-packages/list directories had 640 protections, so could not be read. I'm baffled as to what happened there, but I chmoded them and the build completed. Note that the regex problem was the only compile problem I had using Tru64 C compiler. Is *alloca normally a char? Seems like void is what it should be. I'd try logging into my FreeBSD system and seeing how it's typed there, but the ＠Home connection seems to be down at the moment. :-( In any case, it looks pretty good. I really should have built from CVS before the release so the regex.c could have been patched. Sorry. Is there any hope of config.guess ever being updated to handle Tru64 UNIX V5? (Yes, I realize that this is not really an XEmacs issue.) R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.
