Thanks for the feedback.

Unfortunately, we don't have access to a SunOS 4.1.3 system anymore.
Nevertheless, I'll see what I can do about incorporating your
experience.

May I suggest that you think about obtaining the unbundled SC3 compilers
from Sun.  They should make it easier for you to build packages which
rely on standard features.
