The same problem is manifest under HP/UX, and the solution offered by
Steve Hayman will work there, too.
Happy Christmas

which HP and which version of HP/UX. my utime.h did not give me any problems
through patchlevel 8. the only problem i have is with syscall(). HP/UX
version 7.0 is on the way, so maybe they got it right this time. *dir()
routines are still a bit flakey, haven't had the chance to track it down yet
(or get doug's dir stuff 8-)).

NO Santa Claus, I said Mickey Mouse Phone, not IBM-PC Clone. Oh well, there
isn't really THAT much difference.

You didn't say which version of HP-UX you have either. The way the patchlevel 8 Configure works, if you have a utime.h it is assumed that you also have acusec and modusec fields in your utime structure. You must not have a utime.h or you wouldn't have been able to compile without fixing it! :-) Later versions of HP-UX do have the utime.h file. If "doug's dir stuff" means Doug Gwyn's directory routines, these are unnecessary on later versions of HP-UX, as they are provided in libc. The syscall problem can be worked around by adding s800fix.a to the list of required libraries and creating s800fix with: ar xv /lib/libc.a cerror.o syscall.o ar cv s800fix.a cerror.o syscall.o This works around a bug in syscall.o (fixed in 7.0) on the s800 (a short jump target was used instead of a long one).

Sorry, should have mentioned: The problem is manifest on our HP 9000/3xx workstations under HP/UX 6.5, perl patchlevel 8. The mere existence of the /usr/include/utime.h file triggers the error. Which is very easy to solve, as mentioned in the news from Steve Hayman <32017@iuvax.cx.indiana.edu>. Happy New Year. -- Peder Chr.

oops, that is one of the problems with working on no sleep, running screen, and being logged into too many different machines. i didn't check the right machinge for utime.h. apologies. brian@hpausla.aso.hp.com writes: |You didn't say which version of HP-UX you have either.
