Tristan, Thanks. I must have done something wrong when I did the ./configure. I didn't find a libsqlite.so, just a libsqlite.a . I'll take a deeper look at the options I used.
I am getting this running on an obscure UNIX variant myself. From a Windows / UNIX / Linux perspective, it is a real weird one. It uses EBCDIC instead of ASCII or UTF. It is IBM's z/OS (ref: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z/OS ) But there are a number of people in our small community who say they are very interested. I was very lucky in the Dr. Hipp did 99.999% of the work to support EBCDIC. I got one compile error which was simple to fix.
