I tried a RH 8.0 compile from CVS a couple days ago and got exactly
the same CVSMake and configure errors. My system (autotools etc.) is
default
RH 8.0 installation. I ended up using precompiled binaries from
previous RH 7.3 and
it seemed to work.

discussion about the variable HAVE_STRSTREAM_H

The only thing I use is redhat 8.
The automake and autoconf I use are not the ones that came with
the system.
$ automake --version
automake (GNU automake) 1.3
$ autoconf --version
Autoconf version 2.13

Where are we with regard to compiling DX under RedHat 8.0?
I've been using DX with RH 7.3 with no problem, but 8.0
is being just plain ugly. Below are my two attempts
to set the DX construction machinery in motion. I'm
about ready to cut my losses and load 7.3. Can someone
suggest something I'm missing?
Thanks,

First I tried configuring from the dx-4_2_0_tar tarball.
As you can see below, that failed in the navel examination
phase.
checking for time.h... no
checking for types.h... no
checking for unistd.h... no
checking for values.h... no
checking for wait.h... no
O_RDONLY IS NOT defined by default
checking for windows.h... (cached) no

checking for sys/types.h... (cached) no
checking for sys/stat.h... (cached) no
could not find working combination of stat function and structure

Next I tried the CVS approach. The configure script
hardly got started when it fell on its bum.
