On a sun:

% cd /afs/sipb/project/tcsh/dev/build
% codecenter -ascii
xx -> load -I. -DSYSV -D_PATH_TCSHELL=\"/afs/sipb.mit.edu/project/tcsh/tcsh\" -DHESIOD -I/usr/athena/include *.c

Ignore all warnings.  Two files (sh.c and sh.proc.c) will fail.  Type
"q".

xx -> load -I. -DSYSV -D_PATH_TCSHELL="/afs/sipb.mit.edu/project/tcsh/tcsh" -DHESIOD -I/usr/athena/include -D__STDC__=0 sh.c sh.proc.c

Again, ignore all warnings.

xx -> load -L/usr/athena/lib -L/usr/ccs/lib -lhesiod -lresolv -lsocket -lnsl -lucb -lelf    -lcurses

xx -> run

After a little bit of output:

CodeCenter internal (evaluation) error (signal 11, SIGSEGV, internal location 0x64cd4, workspace:6)
Trying to recover...
Resetting to top level.


Now, there's still a bug in tcsh, and it exhibits itself before
codecenter crashes.  Unfortunately, I have no idea what this error is,
and I have no good way to replicate it, yet, but I suspect sun libc.
stay tuned :-)
