Well, problem solved... sort of. It seems that gcc on Sol7 (i386) is simply incapable of compiling sst. Fortunately, I learned that I had a copy of Sun's CC available here, so I tried that and she compiled with no problem! Now, if I can only get everything configured properly, I might just make t

Some more details of my problem: I can get sst to compile on SPARC. It gives me the same exact warnings as on the Intel box. No problem... as per the docs, these warnings can be ignored. So, I truss'd gcc on the two boxes to see where things go wrong, and this is what I found... Both boxes fork
