I retried building b40p4 with GNU make (3.76.1). Now it builds and runs fine without a hitch. I noticed that I have been using HPUX make for thje last few days, and apparently that was the cause of the problem as I reported in my last posting. Should use GNU make. uname -a: HP-UX accad1 A.09.05 A 9000/735 2005266055 two-user license ./configure 'hppa1.1-hp-hpux9.05' '--dynamic=yes' '--prefix=/usr/local' '--with -dialogs=athena' '--with-xface' '--with-tty=yes' '--site-includes=/usr/local/lib /gcc-lib/hppa1.1-hp-hpux9.05/2.8.1/include /usr/local/canna/include' '--error-ch ecking=none' '--with-jpeg' '--with-xpm' '--with-sound=no' '--with-mule' '--with- canna' '--with-xfs' '--with-database=no' '--with-x' '--cflags=-pipe -mpa-risc-1- 1 -mschedule=7100 -mjump-in-delay -funroll-loops -O5' '--package-path=/usr/local /lib/xemacspack' '--with-dragndrop=no' XEmacs 21.0-b40 "Saanen-pre4" configured for `hppa1.1-hp-hpux9.05'.
