I'm trying to go round the horn again to build curl (and libcurl) for
our population of Unix systems. Out the gate, I ran into trouble on
our HP-UX Itanium development system. I'm curious if anyone can provide
further info on building on HP-UX Itanium systems.
----- with gcc -----
On the first ./configure attempt, it found gcc and failed the make
attempt, seemingly in the same manner as reported here:

It was suggested that the poster try to build another network app and he
tried putty with CFLAGS = -D_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED and
ULDFLAGS = -lxnet and it built, but bombed when executed. I see no
further mention of this in terms of work-arounds.
Taking the hint from above, I re-ran using:
CFLAGS="-D_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED" ./configure and I seem to have gotten
a working curl build. I wonder if configure should always set this
flag for HP-UX systems? It (or something better) would aim for maximum
portability on this platform. Is there a place where all these
This warning seems strange. Why set CPPFLAGS for a c program?:
configure:3645: using CFLAGS: -D_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED
configure:3651: CFLAGS note: CFLAGS should only be used to specify C
compiler flags, not macro definitions. Use CPPFLAGS for:
-D_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED
make test was even happy, although the output was littered with stty and
kill messages, plus this burp in test 1528:

Ultimately, I probably want to use the native compiler.
HP aC++/ANSI C B3910B A.06.10 [Mar 22 2006]
CC=cc ./configure
Dies on:
checking if compiler halts on compilation errors... yes
checking if compiler halts on negative sized arrays... yes
checking if compiler halts on function prototype mismatch... no
configure: error: compiler does not halt on function prototype mismatch.
just like:
http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2013-09/0081.html
http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2013-09/0081.html from that thread says:
"You can easily just comment out CURL_CHECK_COMPILER_PROTOTYPE_MISMATCH
from configure.ac, re-run autoconf and then run configure again and that
failure shouldn't bother you."
I found and commented out the prototype check in configure.ac, but could
not get autoconf to run right:
autoconf configure.ac
interpreter "/usr/local/bin/perl" not found
/usr/local/bin/autoconf[271]: /usr/local/bin/autom4te: not found.
On this system, perl is in /usr/bin. (I don't know if that's normal, I
did not set the system up.)
I'm going to put this aside for a while, but wanted to note it.
