[comp.unix.xenix.sco] GNU Make

itkin@mrspoc.Transact.COM (Steven M. List) (11/27/90)

Has anyone successfully built the GNU Make on SCO XENIX V/386 2.3.x?
I can compile and load it (cc or gcc), but it core dumps when I try to
run it.  I can't afford a lot of time mucking with it, so thought I'd
see if anyone's been more successful than I have! %^}

I have successfully built make-3.59 with the following mods to the makefile.

-------CUT HERE------

CC = gcc -ansi

DEFINES = -DUSG -DUSGr3

LOAD_AVG = -DNO_LDAV

LOAD_LIBES = -ldir

uncommented the ALLOCA and ALLOCASRC defines and setup the man page dir.

-------CUT HERE-------

It does not core dump and was built with gcc v 1.37.1 for SCO XENIX 2.3.3
with the include files made by the script from robobar.

I haven't had time to beat on it to make sure everything works, but it
does work.
