OK.  A/UX's xdr(3) implementation is definitely broken.  Now we need to
discover why this wasn't discovered by the `configure' script.

Would you please do the following:

        1. Apply the following patch to the `configure' script:

*** configure   Fri Jun 11 14:16:55 1993
--- /tmp/t.t    Mon Feb 28 15:13:43 1994
***************
*** 598,603 ****
--- 598,604 ----
  fi
  
  echo checking for XDR header-file
+ set echo
    if test -z "$CPP_XDR"; then
      for dir in /usr/include/rpc /usr/local/include/rpc \
      $prefix/include `case "xdr" in 
***************
*** 741,746 ****
--- 742,748 ----
  XDR_INSTALL_DEPS=installed_headers
  LD_XDR=
  fi
+ exit
  rm -f conftest*
  
  echo checking for function prototypes

        2. Run the `configure' script and send me the output.

        3. Move the file `conftest.c', which was created by the `configure'
           script, to the file `testxdr.c'.

        4. Move the program `conftest', which was also created by the
           `configure' script, to the file `testxdr'.

        5. run `testxdr' and send me the output.
