I'm running X11R3 on a Sun4 (SunOs4.0.1) with both mono and color
displays. I've been running the R3 stuff since it cam eout with no
problems, but recently decided to rebuild the distribution using
gcc-1.34 since a lot of SPARC problems were fixed in that version. I
went for broke and built the whole thing using 

gcc -traditional -fpcc-struct-return

to see if the "dbm.h" related struct passing problems were fixed. It
appears that the "-fpcc-struct-return" switch didn't fix the problems,
so I recompiled the necessary files using SUN's /bin/cc and everything
is OK. Has anyone used gcc-1.34 with -fpcc-struct-return succesfully?
