41.1StvOnly those platforms which have been tested to complete a "build.sh" run
51.1Stvare listed.

71.10SjmcAll hosts must have a POSIX compatible sh. /bin/sh is assumed unless 
81.10Sjmcotherwise set. This can be overridden by setting HOST_SH in the environment.
91.10Sjmc
101.10SjmcIn addition all hosts must provide the following local tools:

171.11Sjmc
181.11Sjmc* _NETBSD_SOURCE is *not* to be defined/pulled in during compat/tools builds.

201.11Sjmc
211.8SlukemHP-UX:
221.7Slukem
231.7Slukem* zlib must be available.
241.7Slukem  This will be fixed in the future to include zlib in libnbcompat.

501.9Sdbj
511.9Sdbj* Tested on 10.2.8 with Dec 2002 Developer Tools
521.9Sdbj    - may require a fix to /usr/bin/join, netbsd's join should work fine
531.12Sjmc* Tested on 10.3 with xcode 1.5
541.9Sdbj    - compiles fine out of the box
551.1Stv

571.1Stv
581.1StvNETBSD (earlier releases):
591.1Stv
601.1Stv* Tested on NetBSD 1.5.2 (machine-independently).
611.1Stv

651.1Stv
661.1StvSOLARIS:
671.1Stv
681.4Sthorpej* Tested on Solaris/x86 8 (5.8) with gcc 2.95.2 and Solaris/sparc 8 (5.8)
691.4Sthorpej  with gcc 3.2 (not yet tested with SUNWspro).
701.1Stv
711.1Stv* $HOST_CC needs to be set properly (for gcc, it should be set to "gcc",
721.1Stv  otherwise the improper /usr/ucb/cc may be invoked by accident).
731.1Stv
741.4Sthorpej* The SUNWzlib package (or a built version of zlib visible to $HOST_CC,
751.4Sthorpej  such as SMCzlib from sunfreeware.com) must be installed.  This will be
761.4Sthorpej  fixed in the future to include zlib in libnbcompat.
771.1Stv
781.1Stv* Needs the following paths, in this order, in $PATH:
791.1Stv
801.5Sthorpej      /usr/xpg4/bin
811.4Sthorpej      /usr/ccs/bin
821.4Sthorpej      <path to host C and C++ compilers>
831.4Sthorpej      /usr/bin
841.4Sthorpej
851.4Sthorpej  /usr/ucb may optionally be placed before /usr/bin, per your preference,
861.4Sthorpej  but /usr/ucb *MUST NOT* be before /usr/ccs/bin or before the path to
871.4Sthorpej  the host C and C++ compilers.
