For now, the HP section in Makefile for 11.00 now looks like

ifeq ($(uname_S),HP-UX)
	# HP-UX
	BASIC_LDFLAGS  += -L/usr/local/ssl/lib -L/usr/local/lib
#	EXTLIBS        += -lc_r -lgcc
	NO_HSTRERROR	= YesPlease
	NO_ICONV	= YesPlease
	NO_INET_NTOP	= YesPlease
	NO_INET_PTON	= YesPlease
	NO_UNSETENV	= YesPlease
	NO_STRTOULL	= YesPlease
	NO_STRTOUMAX	= YesPlease
	NO_PREAD	= YesPlease
endif
