Hello Anton
Today I updated gforth from cvs on several MacOSX 10.4.11 PPC
machines. All went well until the last, where I had installed other
MacPorts.
With autoconf 2.62 and automake 1.10.1 installed the conpile failed
with an endian error. (bigendian... universal ???)
If I deactivate those two files and use automake 1.6.3 and automake
2.59 it compiles ok. (bigendian... yes)
Do you have any idea why autoconf 2.62 is creating a "bad"
configure file?

in regards to this. I hope that my questions are not too noobish.
If everything needed is installed, you just need to say
./configure && make
(and if you can and want to install it into the usual places: "make
install")
as is mentioned in the INSTALL file. Concerning the links: Just read
the INSTALL file.
There may actually be a gforth package for the system that's running
on your hosting account.
