Mike,

I was just about to work on your problem when I saw your second email. All I 
can say is "Wow!" It's not often the compiler's at fault. Kudos for figuring 
that out.

> Steve, I’ve spent all day trying to get LDM to build on a i386 solaris 
> machine.
> 
> If I untar LDM 6.12.6 and run configure and make install, I get a nice 32 bit 
> addressing version of the software which doesn’t give me a sufficient PQ size.
> 
> If I do it again and add the -m64 option to the compiler, I get regutil 
> linking errors.  I’ve scanned the directories and logs and can’t manage to 
> find a solution that works.
> 
> I’m attaching log files from the config and install.  config.log.1 and 
> install.log.1 are the successful 32 bit installs and versions 2 are the 
> unsuccessful logs.

> I’m also giving you the results of dumping c99 -flags to a file called 
> cflags.info.
> 
> This is the results of running isainfo -v on the machine.  I’ve built a 
> successful 64 bit version on three sparc machines but today wasn’t my day for 
> getting the i386 running.  I have abandoned the idea of doing this without 
> MMAP so that’s not the problem, I’m trying to keep this as simple as possible 
> to get LDM up and running.  Any suggestions you have would be appreciated.
