Bash, SCO and SCO's lousy POSIX compliance...

I just recently got porting duties for a bunch of SCO-3.2.4 boxes, and
being an avid bash user, want to get bash working on them.  As luck
would have it, I eventually got bash to compile with only minor
changes to the machines.h file (diffs available for gcc compiles if
you want them...They aren't much good right now).  The only problem is
that bash hangs after every command, and sometimes cores when it is
through.  My milage varies according to what compiler I use.  I am
currently trying to get bash to work with GCC-2.3.1.  No luck yet.  I
have tried cc, and rcc both to no avail.

If anyone has gotten bash to work with or without POSIX job control on
a SCO-3.2.4 box, I would be most appreciative if you could send me
some help on how you did it.  I will try looking more into this myself as
soon as I can get GDB ported :-).


Thanks...

Colin
