the make pukes up some problems with redefinitions and
conflicting types. For instance, /usr/include/stdio.h
and /usr/include/g++/stdio.h seem to have some fundamental
differences - functions that return long ints in one,
return short ints in the other version, and so on...
Do you, by any chance, still have some old header files lying around
/usr/include that might be contaminating the newer ones?
b) Neither cu nor tip like me anymore, even after I applied
the patch to common_sources/conn.c... cu insists on
bailing out with a read/write error or something to that
effect, and tip doesn't seem to seize the port (/dev/com1)
properly.. I retooled /etc/remote for tip, (I used to
always use cu), but still no dice..
Using the serial ports can be kinda tricky. Read the ttys man page
and consider adding the "softcar" and/or "local" flags to your modem
line in /etc/ttys. You could also try building kermit 190 (which
builds right out of the box). It might be more friendly about
opening and using your ports.
