I'm setting up my System i to run gcc in PASE so I can test. I don't know
how close it is to mimicking a real AIX system, but it is probably better

Ok, problems encountered so far:

1. cvs doesn't seem to work at all. It needs rsh and I can't find rsh binaries or RPMs to install. It seems odd to me that the YiP site wouldn't have noticed this already...

2. ./autogen.sh doesn't work because it can't find autoreconf. Again, this appears to be a failing of the PASE environment (or my installation of the tools).

3. conf.c:716: warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function 'snprintf'

4. macro.c:158: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 1 of 'strncpy' differ in signedness
(This error occurs three more times in macro.c. I think I know what causes this since I worked on macro.c recently.)

5. sslstream.c:201: warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function 'snprintf'

6. sslstream.c:466: error: 'struct _Tn5250Stream' has no member named 'naccept'

This last one breaks the compile. This is the same issue Alberto originally reported. I think the correct way to handle this is to add an autoconf test that determines if accept has been redefined in socket.h then handle it gracefully. I'll take a look at doing the quick and dirty fix mentioned earlier and see where the compile gets to.

if you want to understand why that is, there are many good books on
the design of operating systems. please pass them along to redmond
when you're done reading them :)
