I'm not certain. I do in fact have gcc (3.3) installed on this Tru64
box, but it doesn't seem to be part of the original 'freeware' CD that
used to come with Tru64. Besides, the freeware CD was first removed as
physical CD, and later (two or three years ago, apparently) pulled by
HP from the online download which was used by their 'tachometer'
('apt-get'-like) freeware tool. Tru64 V51B (which seems to be the
latest, there's no 5.2 as I originally thought) is still available for
download, and so is the native compiler. As far as I can tell it's
incredibly difficult to find precompiled freeware/oss packages for
Tru64 anymore.

Good idea. I'll do that, and maybe that would indicate if there are
issues with using the native compiler as well.

I tested that snippet you provided, and it exits with 0 on Tru64 (I
also verified that indeed it doesn't on Solaris 10).

Right, I can do it similarly in my next version of the patch. Thanks
for your comments!
