Thanks to Lutz Jaenicke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> who reminded
me (us) to check
config.log to see why configure crashed. Turns out configure on both
SSH2 was trying to use
the flag "-std1" on OSF in the following code:
==============================
case "$target" in
alpha*-dec-osf*)
# If we are not using gcc, we want the ansi version of cc.
if test -z "$GCC"; then
CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -std1 -warnprotos -msg_disable longdoublenyi"
fi
;;
*-dec-ultrix*)
[...]
==============================
It also turns out the latest DEC C compiler doesn't recognize -std1.
Having resolved that, however,
I'm now getting yet another error when trying to compile. Being the 5th
or 6th bug in the configure
code that I've seen, I must agree that there isn't any flavor of ssh2
ready for prime time for DECs
running OSF. If someone figures out the problems and can get it to
compile without a hitch and
without a large amount of overhead debugging the code, I'd be pleased to
hear it.
