?

And in userthreads, if there is no get/set/make/swapcontext, you can change the #if at the top of ThreadPosixC.c to try sigaltstack.
Also the userthreads Makefile has -lpthread in it, which you'll maybe want to remove...depending on if there is pthread_atfork, i.e. you  might want to tweak this:
jbook2:cm3-boot-ALPHA_OSF-d5.8.2-20100713 jay$ grep pthread_atfork *c
RTProcessC.c:      int i = pthread_atfork(prepare, parent, child);


but try the pthread version first?

These will give you a cm3 and if it prints "unable to find cm3.cfg", good.

Tru64 4.x isn't officially supported by gcc any longer, but I noticed recent test results posted anyway.
You just have to configure -enable-obsolete or somesuch.

Can you give me ssh access? That's a good and bad thing. Should be doable without such direct help by me..
