This is a real wild guess, as I haven't even read the 2.0 documentation yet, but with 2.0 Ultrix's default C compiler is no longer the standard run-of-the-mill portable C compiler. (It's still available on the system for kernel building, however.) Could it be that the way DEC's new C compiler (it's the Ultrix port of the VAX/VMS C compiler) spits out error messages, or the way it's invoked is screwing up the GNU compile command? Just a thought... Dick Dramstad rad@mitre-bedford.arpa
