Possibly. But I'm afraid we're sort of stuck here. As far as I know you are the only person in the world trying to port modern GNU apps to this obsolescent Tandem release.

I wouldn't worry too much about the "possibly biting" stuff. _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
