[hobbit] Builds of Hobbit client for ancient operatingsystems?

[Galen Johnson]

The default compiler on HPUX is pretty much only good for recompiling the kernel (I ran into it in the past).  You might want to go to http://hpux.cs.utah.edu/ (kinda like sunfreeware for hpux) to see if they still have any packages to save yourself a compile.

I did get gmake installed on the hpux 10.20 box - it compiled OK, but as
I see in the docs, other people have noticed that the Hobbit client does
not like the default C compiler on hp/ux.  I'll have to see if I can get
a copy of the ANSI C compiler.

I also got the client compiled for Solaris 6.  Thanks to everyone for
the tips.
