Are you trying to compile under -current? I have done some additional work
to the IBCS2 code for 1.0 but I haven't finished making the changes to
the -current tree yet. Hopefully, by the end of the week.

FYI - I've run most of the binaries from SCO ODT version 2 & 3 (including
network and X programs) and several 3rd party programs including Informix,
Builder Xcessory, and WordPerfect 6.0.

If anyone wants the patches for 1.0, let me know.
