[comp.lsi] OCT 4.0 on SPARCstation

Has anybody successfully compiled OCT 4.0 on a Sun-4 with SunOS 4.1?
I am having problems running the "padplace" program, it gives
Segmentation faults.

Thanks,

Well, here's the scoop on running OCT 4.0 on a Sun-4.  You need
bug fixes for the following programs: padplace, cprep.  If you need
the fixes, send me mail and I will send them to you.

Another problem I had was with names of programs.  OCT has a program called
"spider", and also I had my own program called "spider".  Thus, when OCT
tried to run spider, it got the wrong one!!  It took me a while to figure
this out.

With all the fixes, I am now able to run the BCD-counter example which
is included in the documentation.

Thanks everybody for their responses.
