Re: [help-cpp2html]Re: Compile problems on HP-UX 10.20

Ciao Aldo

        This week end I tried to solve the alloca problem so I added a check in
configure and in case alloca is missing another file (alloca.c) will be
compiled and linked; I took this file from GNU hello, and so it should
work, but could you please test this new (pre)release on your machine
and system? I would need the output from configure and make (if anything
is wrong).

thanks very much in advance

a presto
        Lorenzo
