That should not happen. configure has: case "$target" in ... hp*hpux*) if test "$CC" = "cc"; then CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -Aa +e -D_HPUX_SOURCE"; export CFLAGS AC_MSG_WARN(HP-UX's cc) fi ;; ... So, if you have gcc on your system, the unusual CFLAGS should not be added. > A bit dissapointed since my bad experiences with HP ANSI cc I've > configured with HP cc as > ANSI C compiler and gcc as C++ compiler (configure allows gcc to act as > C++ compiler !!)

As long as the relative structure (binaries vs. texmf tree) is kept intact, the binaries can even be used by other people in other directories. The usual rules apply, so if you have used non-standard shared libraries (e.g. for X11 or some curses lib), other people will need that, too. Thomas
