I have compiled it successfully on Dec Unix 4.0F with gcc 2.95.2. But there are several issues: - I would rather not use gcc on this platform because it's buggy; but compiling with cc fails in ./include/types.h - make check fails in 18 out of 23 tests - there is no mlock() on this platform - I'm using the same ~/.gnupg/entropy socket with egd running on a number of machines. I don't know whether this causes problems. Details available on request. I am very interested to get this working across all systems on our network.
