this patch brings libjava support for the HP-UX PA 32-bit platform.
To use it/try it you should have at least PHSS_33033 (actual is
PHSS_33035), a linker patch, and the kernel parameters maxssiz set to >=
16MB.
Why the maxssiz requirement?
Well, when compiling the libjava files, the jc1 consumes lots of memory.
I remember that this failed for me. I had a very weird default maxsize
of 83570688. Reducing this value to 8MB helped, but then I was not able
to run gdb. I always got messages like this:
--
Pid 20872 received a SIGSEGV for stack growth failure.
Possible causes: insufficient memory or swap space,
or stack size exceeded maxssiz.

Playing around with maxssize gave me the value of 16MB, also Dave told
me has a similar setting. So I thought it would be a good advise to give.
