I had the same problem with installing 2.11 news on a CCI Power 6/32 machine running SVR2. Although I used localize.usg as a starting point for localize.sh, I had to modify it slightly to have the CFLAGS pass a new flag down to the ndir.c routine, so that ndir.c is commented out, and the 4.2 style directory(3) routines in libc.a (or wherever) are used instead. If anybody out in net land wants a copy of localize.cci632, please reply to me. -- -Dennis Bednar {decvax,ihnp4,harpo,allegra}!seismo!rlgvax!dennis UUCP
