-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Files changed:

* Makefile.in:
  - "gmake clean" now also deletes config.cache.

* configure:
  - Cache file is now config.cache, rather than /dev/null.
  - Set up an HP-UX override section, including:
    * Set prefix to /usr/local.
    * Put /usr/local/bin in the front of the PATH.
    * If Itanium, set libdir to /usr/local/lib/hpux64.
    * Compile with "cc -O".
    * Link with -lpthread.
    * Set RANLIB to /bin/true.
    * Enable both shared and static library building.
  - Strip any installed binaries.
  - Set 755 permissions on any installed scripts.

* src/main.c:
  - If HP-UX, include headers to support pstat_getdynamic().
  - Use strchr() instead of the obsolete index().
  - If HP-UX, hard-code maximum threads as 4.
  - If HP-UX, call pstat_getdynamic() to get number of CPUs.

* tests/Tester:
  - Remove non-portable "set -C" flag.
  - Don't call ulimit.

To compile:
 
[Edit the HP-UX override section of configure for your site,
 particularly the prefix setting]
./configure
gmake
 
To test:
 
gmake check
[This should pass all the tests OK]
 
To install (usually as root):
 
gmake install
