Successful 1.0.1 build on HP-UX

[Dave Steffen]

Hi Folks

   Just finished a successful build on HP-UX 9.05. I used the native
   compiler, GNU's assember (2.8.1), and configured with
   --with-gnu-as.

   Some build notes: first of all, since I was using a prefix that's
   unique (I already blew away my working gcc2 once, and I didn't want
   to repeat the experience), I also had to rebuild/reinstall gas with
   the same prefix. Otherwise, the build process seemed to eventually
   pick up the native HP assembler, at which point all hell broke
   loose. ;-)

   Also, as per the "SPECIFIC" file, there's a bug in the shell that's
   triggered by the configure scripts. In fact, it's triggered by
   several other GNU packages I've built recently. Setting SHELL and
   CONFIG_SHELL to /bin/ksh fixed the problem in in configure script;
   but every now and then during the actual build process, I'd see the
   same error happen. Unfortunately I didn't save the output from the
   build process; I'll try to reproduce this bug. OTOH it didn't seem
   to hurt anything very much...

  I've only compiled a trivial test program so far; hitting my
  numerical code with egcs will take some fussing with my
  libraries. ;-)
