Oops. I guess I should have explicitly mentioned it. If you look at my message that I sent out Sunday, you will notice that I used this configure statement in my build: ./configure --cflags='-std -g3 -O3 -tune host' Using -std1, which enforces strict ANSI, blows chunks in a real bad way. :-( DEC^H^H^H COMPAQ's Digital Unix compiler group has stated that the default will become "-std" in a future release. Currently the default is -std0. -Reggie -----Original Message----- From: Andrew J Cosgriff [mailto:ajc＠bing.wattle.id.au] Sent: Wednesday, June 24, 1998 5:58 PM To: xemacs-beta(a)xemacs.org Subject: Re: [Exceedingly Groovy] 21.0 "Toggenburg" XEmacs Lucid on alpha-dec-osf4.0 Martin> That (questionable) part only gets used if __STDC__ is Martin> undefined.
