Ivan
Thanks for your tip , my compiler was indeed gcc 2.8.1 and with no
optimization it works now.
One other thing I noticed, is strangs solvable make problem.
When you follow the quick install note for multi architecture platforms.
for HP ( I am using the Gnu make );
./configure
make world
then on Sun
make distclean
./configure
make all
make install-exec
This gives me a complete working set for the suns and for the HP we miss
some stuff like "xdvi.bin" but also some other things are not working
with texconfig.
But when I start again for the HP
make distclean
./configure
make all
make install-exec
Then the working set is compleet and all works.
So something in the make world goes wrong.
Thanks everyone who toke some time to look at the problem.
