About a week ago, I posted an article detailing problems I was having building TeX3.0 from the distribution tape on a sun 3-80. The problems were oversized case statements in gftodvi.c and vftovp.c, causing yacc stack overflows when compiled with cc. The solution was actually in the make.history file - split up the case statement. alternatively, use gcc rather than cc Thanks to all who replied Bruce. -- ================================================================================ R.B.

I've just compiled TeX3.0 on our Suns with SunOS4.0.3. When getting the stack overflow I tried it on another machine running SunOS4.1. The SunOS4.1 compiler could handle the large case statements.
