Some build reports (HP-UX, IRIX, Solaris, AIX, Linux)

[Christoph Moench-Tegeder]

Some notes on building gnupg 1.2.1 on different platforms
(all the stuff I couldn't find in the archives when I ran into
first trouble):

For all those needing idea: The check for bigendian platforms in idea.c
line 73 covers only gcc. For other compilers, I needed the following
patch:

--- /home/ws/ry04/gnupg/idea.c  Tue Mar 25 18:38:38 2003
+++ idea.c      Tue Apr  8 23:19:24 2003

Some little patching was required so I coud link tiger and idea got linked
statically into gpg. This only affected cipher/Makefile.in and was rather
trivial:

 .NOEXPORT:

Note that the sed script breaks the $CFLAGS for IRIX's cc (it uses
-O -OPT:Olimit=2000), so it's a good idea too get rid of these lines
anyway.

Now for the compilers and $CFLAGS:

AIX 4.1, 4.3, 5.1:
 Compiler was xlc (IBM) (called via cc)
 Environment:
  CFLAGS='-O3 -qstrict'
  CXXFLAGS='-O3 -qstrict'
 ./configure --enable-tiger --enable-static-rnd=unix --disable-asm

HP-UX 9:
 HP-UX 9 does not know not know about RLIMIT_CORE. One can disable
 disable_core_dumps (g10/misc.c ll 85) or define RLIMIT_CORE as 4
 (this comes frome the HP-UX FAQ). I did the latter, so I ended up
 with:
 Compiler: gcc 2.95.2
 Environment:
  CFLAGS='-O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -DRLIMIT_CORE=4'
  PICFLAGS=+z
  CXXFLAGS='-O3 -fomit-frame-pointer'
 ./configure --enable-tiger --enable-static-rnd=unix

HP-UX 10, 11:
 Compiler: gcc 2.95.2
 Environment:
  CFLAGS='-O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -DRLIMIT_CORE=4'
  PICFLAGS=+z
  CXXFLAGS='-O3 -fomit-frame-pointer'
 ./configure --enable-tiger --enable-static-rnd=unix

IRIX 6.5:
 Compiler: cc (SGI)
 Environment:
  CFLAGS='-O -OPT:Olimit=2000'
  CXXFLAGS='-O -OPT:Olimit=2000'
 ./configure --enable-tiger --enable-static-rnd=unix --disable-asm

Linux (glibc 2.1 and 2.2):
 Works out of the box.
 Compiler: gcc 2.95.2
 Environment:
  CFLAGS='-O3 -fomit-frame-pointer'
  CXXFLAGS='-O3 -fomit-frame-pointer'
  PICFLAGS=-fPIC
 ./configure --enable-tiger --enable-static-rnd=linux

Solaris 7:
 Do not set CFLAGS=-xO3, you will get bus errors in some checks.
 Compiler: Sun WSpro 6
 Environment:
  PICFLAGS=-Kpic
 ./configure --enable-tiger  --enable-static-rnd=unix

I could not get a Tru64 for testing, may be next time.
