Travesty also didn't work on SCO Xenix.

Just another data point.

After redefining some of the function calls as follows:

	srandom		to 	srand
	random		to	rand
	bcmp		to	strncmp
	bcopy		to	stncpy

in order to HOPEFULLY make it compatible with HPUX, it still didn't work.

	:-(

The bcmp and bcopy should have been redefined to memcmp and memcpy,
but that still didn't do me any good.
