I replied to Richard by e-mail already but this might be of interest to
other HP users as well...

  Starting at the HP-UX 7.0 release, HP delivers its own version of Elm,
which is based on some kinda Elm 2.1 version (don't nail me if I got some
version number incorrect) and is therefore out of date. If you've been
using Elm from the Elm Development Group, you don't want to use the
HP version! When I upgrade to 7.0, one of the first things I did, is
remove everything that was part of the Elm version that came with 7.0.
