We use KSH93 extensively on HP-UX and would still like to be able to do so. If
there are directives related to building on HP-UX, we would like to see them
remain. Even though it is an older O/S, it is still widely used and actively
maintained by HP.
Cheers,
Russ

Subject: Re[2]: [ast-developers] Transitioning ast to GitHub
The code of the AST library contains a zillion of #ifdef and other
conditional compilation directives in order to support outdated variants
of Unices. The code has become FORTRAN-like.
I suggest to make a final code freeze for most of the systems (Unices),
and to pick a few up-to-date Unices and Unix-lookalikes and to port the
AST-code to these few systems by heavy usage of deletion.
The 1st Unix on the list should be Linux, as that seems to be the focal
point of U**X development, i.e. commercial Unices are trying to get
Linux-like.
