Hello,
It turned out it is a compiler related problem, so I did a few tests
with the 4.51 snapshot on a few recent HP-UX machines and think this
should make it's way into the list archive:
The CFLAGS setting of "-Ae +O3 +Onolimit" works fine on PA-RISC:
$ uname -rm; swlist -l product | grep ANSI-C
B.11.11 9000/800
C-ANSI-C B.11.11.06 HP C/ANSI C Compiler
B.11.11 9000/800
C-ANSI-C B.11.11.08 HP C/ANSI C Compiler
B.11.23 9000/800
C-ANSI-C B.11.23.06 HP C/ANSI C Compiler
Whereas on the itanium platform (ipf), it results in a binary that
works but is unable to run as a background daemon ("-bd").
B.11.23 ia64
C-ANSI-C C.06.00 HP C/ANSI C Compiler
A working solution here is setting CFLAGS to "-Ae -AOe +Onolimit".
"Intel inside" will slightly change it's meaning for me I guess ;)
Kind regards,
vt
