After a suggestion of Olivier Galibert, I tried ./configure --pdump
with the Compaq compile, and to my amazement it started working. Even
the problem with the selection I reported some weeks ago was gone :) I
will make some more tests and see if it works with gcc, too.
Note that this really isn't that amazing. The "p" in pdump is there
for a reason.
The question is whether you/we/somebody else[1] wants to chase down the
problem with the black art of normal dumping or that the time isn't
better spend completing the pdump support.
