I stated, that I made abc compiling on Sun4, but gary@proa.sb.dg.com still
has problems:

This is certainly due to the fact that you use the ANSI-conform gcc
instead of cc. I don't know how you managed it to get the gcc in your
Makefile, but if you use cc or gcc -traditional instead it should work.
But, as far as we experienced here, it's anyway at least not worse to
use cc instead of gcc on the Sparc, the suns cc produces faster code
and supports dynamic-linking.

I only took a short look on the sources, why do you think it should remove
files ?
