[comp.mail.elm] Elm 2.2 on SCO XENIX 2.2.1

I had the same problems as everyone else is reporting on Microports *nix under
SCO XENIX 2.2.1.

The solution is simple, up the stack size for /bin/sh. I used 

# mv /bin/sh /bin/sh.old
# cp /bin/sh.old /bin/sh
# fixhdr -F 8000 /bin/sh

This may seem a bit over the top, but I put it back after!

# mv /bin/sh /bin/sh.rm
# mv /bin/sh.old /bin/sh

Then wait till nobody is using /bin/sh.rm then

# rm /bin/sh.rm

That way you preserve your old shell, ( ie you don't break it ), but you
get to use Configure without bus errors etc.

I hope that of use

Keith
