Hi,

I was unable to compile octave-1.90. I am using gcc-2.7.2, glib++-
2.7.1, f2c, gnu ar/as/make/etc on sco-3.2v4.0.

1-I had to export LIBS=-lsocket before starting configure, as some 
  functions can only be found there, such as bcopy, bzero, gethostname, 
  and others.

2-The Makefile in libcruft has a very long string. My _kernel_ only 
  accepts strings up to 5Kbytes, so I have to split it as follows: 

  CR1 = balgen blas dassl eispack fftpack fsqp lapack linpack minpack
  CR2 = misc npsol odepack qpsol quadpack ranlib slatec-fn villad

  CRUFT_FSRC1 = $(foreach dir, $(CR1), $(wildcard $(srcdir)/$(dir)/*.f))
  CRUFT_FSRC2 = $(foreach dir, $(CR2), $(wildcard $(srcdir)/$(dir)/*.f))

  CRUFT_OBJ21 = $(patsubst $(srcdir)/%, %, $(CRUFT_FSRC1))
  CRUFT_OBJ22 = $(patsubst $(srcdir)/%, %, $(CRUFT_FSRC2))

  CRUFT_OBJ11 = $(patsubst %.f, %.o, $(CRUFT_OBJ21))
  CRUFT_OBJ12 = $(patsubst %.f, %.o, $(CRUFT_OBJ22))
  ...
    $(AR) $(ARFLAGS) libcruft.a $(CRUFT_OBJ11)
    $(AR) $(ARFLAGS) libcruft.a $(CRUFT_OBJ12)
    $(AR) $(ARFLAGS) libcruft.a $(MISC_OBJ)

3- There was a problem in libcruft/misc with `d1mach.f'; after 
  'configure' and 'make' somehow d1mach.f disapear?? I had to extract 
  it again from the tar file. - Misterious. 

4-Then, in octave-1.90/src, compiler errors:

c++ -c -I. -I../src -I.. -I../liboctave -I../src -I../glob -
DHAVE_CONFIG_H -fno-implicit-templates -O3 -m486 -pipe mappers.cc

5-then after 'make -i', I got an undefined reference to `S_ISSOCK in 
  liboctave/file-ops.cc. It seems that my system don't make a 'socket' 
  file, so there is no such macro defined. 

Can these problems, specifically problem 4, be corrected?

Looking forward for 2.0, thanks,
Joao
