I attempted to build it using the (HP) aCC compiler A.03.37 on HP/UX V11.  I
have tried many different compiler switches, without success.  Rather than
dump all of the (compiler) errors here, my question is simply: Has anyone
been successful in building Free TDS V0.60 on HP/UX using the aCC compiler?

Bruce, 

I don't remember anyone asking about that compiler.  FreeTDS builds with gcc
on HP/UX 11, for sure.  We think the code is very portable, but nothing's
portable until it's ported.  

However, I'm not sure about the 0.60 release.  You probably need a recent
snapshot (since October).  We upgraded our autotools since the release, and
made several long strides toward portability.  

If it's a matter of compiler switches, that's a libtool issue (which we can
perhaps work around).  I tried
http://devresource.hp.com/STK/man/11.00/aCC_1.html to look at the manual,
but their online manual is really really hard to read.  

If it's a matter of nonportable constructions, we'd be happy to fix them.  

If last night's snapshot doesn't Just Work, please go ahead and attach your
./configure && make output.
