[ this was bounced by majordomo as it was rather large. I have cut
out the large attachments.
Helmut: I think people would appreciate it if you made them available
by ftp/http and just included pointers to them in your mail. I don't
think all the readers of the mailinglist are that interested in these
long files. Thanks. /assar ]

Ah, I *did* find the sources (arla 0.21), so I can play with it.
Well, IceConnectionNumber is checked for in configure:
next 49 cpu> find . -exec grep IceConnectionNumber ; -print
echo $ac_n "checking for IceConnectionNumber in -lICE""... $ac_c" 1>&6
echo "configure:2201: checking for IceConnectionNumber in -lICE" >&5
ac_lib_var=`echo ICE'_'IceConnectionNumber | sed 'y%./+-%__p_%'`
char IceConnectionNumber();
IceConnectionNumber()
./configure
I will try a
make clean
and then a
rm config.cache
and
./configure
without any arguments:
[ ... config.log cut out ... ]
[ ... config.cache cut out ... ]
[ ... config.status cut out ... ]
[ ... config.stdout cut out ... ]
[ ... several make logs cut out ... ]

now we have two choices: either use cc -bsd here, or change config.h to=20
/* #undefine HAVE_SYS_UTSNAME_H */
which I do. Perhaps the check in configure for HAVE_SYS_UTSNAME_H should =
use the -posix flag or make otherwise sure that only POSIX header files =
are considered. Or it should have hard wired that NeXTSTEP does=20
<bold>not
</bold> have HAVE_SYS_UTSNAME_H in POSIX mode.
[ ... and more make logs ... ]

mode_t is only available in bsd mode:
<italic>next 80 cpu> cd /usr/include
next 81 cpu> find . -exec grep mode_t ; -print
typedef unsigned short mode_t;
./bsd/sys/types.h
mode_t st_mode; /* File type and access */
extern int chmod(const char *path, mode_t mode);
extern int mkdir(const char *path, mode_t mode);
extern int mkfifo(const char *path, mode_t mode);
extern mode_t umask(mode_t cmask);
extern mode_t umask();
./bsd/sys/stat.h
extern creat(const char *path, mode_t mode);
./bsd/sys/fcntl.h
typedef int /* default */ _G_mode_t;
./g++/_G_config.h
</italic>same for nlink_t:
<italic>next 82 cpu> find . -exec grep nlink_t ; -print
typedef short nlink_t;
./bsd/sys/types.h
nlink_t st_nlink; /* File link count */
./bsd/sys/stat.h
typedef int /* default */ _G_nlink_t;
./g++/_G_config.h
</italic>
Probably here the real porting effort starts. Well, well....
I never did any kernel stuff before...if you want to, I can give you a =
guest account on my machine :-) And there are other kernel modules, e.g., =
the PPP stuff at=20
