It is a known problem: bug ID 1011141. To fix: - become root on the machine containing /usr/lib/liblwp.a - cp /usr.lib/liblwp.a /usr/lib/liblwp.a.bak - cd /tmp - Create the file fix.s with two lines: .globl REGOFFSET REGOFFSET=8 - cc -c fix.s - cp /usr/lib/liblwp.a . (still in /tmp) - ar u liblwp.a fix.o - mv liblwp.a /usr/lib - chmod 644 /usr/lib/liblwp.a - ranlib /usr/lib/liblwp.a This procedure (and a version for Sun-4's) is in the Dec88 Software Technical Bulletin, Page 2250-2251. --marc ......

This was a problem with Sun's release -- they forgot to include the file that contains this symbol in the release. Release 4.0.1 supposedly fixes the problem. In the meantime, you can get around it as follows. Create a file called lwpfix.s containing .globl REGOFFSET REGOFFSET = 8 Then, assemble it (cc -c lwpfix.s) and add it to your lwp library: ar u /usr/lib/liblwp.a lwpfix.o (or, of course, you could just link this file in directly with your program). That was the fix for Sun 3's. For Sun 4's, put the following in lwpfix.s and add the assembled file to your library: .globl SP_OFFSET .globl PC_OFFSET .globl Y_OFFSET .globl G2_OFFSET .globl O0_OFFSET .globl CKSTKOVERHEAD SP_OFFSET = 64 PC_OFFSET = 72 Y_OFFSET = 84 G2_OFFSET = 16 O0_OFFSET = 40 CKSTKOVERHEAD = 10240 - Mike Schwartz Dept. of Computer Science U.
