This isn't really a fink-related question, sorry, but it is related to
porting UNIX tools to OS X, so I hope it's okay to ask.

I am trying to compile a piece of legacy software that was written in
C in 1988 (the PDP neural network simulator, in case that's familiar)
and that ran on UNIX.  I did manage to port this over to OS X 10.1 --
it compiled and worked fine on a Powerbbok G3.  The software does not
actually use X11, so it ran fine either in an xterm (under XDarwin) or
in a Darwin terminal window.

Since upgrading to 10.2 on the Powerbook, the software gives the
following error message when I try to run it (the program I'm trying
to run is named "bp"):

dyld: bp Undefined symbols:
bp undefined reference to _stdscr expected to be defined in
/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib
Trace/BPT Trap

This happens either in a terminal window or an xterm.

I have not yet tried recompiling the code, because I *have* tried
compiling the code under 10.2 on a G4, where the compilation process
completes perfectly, but the program simply hangs when I try to run
it (no error message whatsoever).

Does the error message on the G3 ring a bell?  Is there more
information I need to provide?  Any suggestions much appreciated!

Thanks in advance,
Prahlad
