Then again, I have my reservations about the quality of the code when it was installed. For example, I just had the pleasure of finding out that HP's thread tests all rely on a magic pre-built binary becuase they couldn't get the testfile to build on hpux11. Of course we don't even have that binary and if we did, it'd probably be a GPL violation to distribute it. I'll be disabling those tests shortly :( > so you > can check fixes in if you want. I am sure it will improve things. It can't hurt. Particularly when it's pretty clear that nobody's built/tested GDB on hpux11 since Jan 2001. > But I don't know about gdb/somsolib.c.
