(Maybe this is a bug inherited from Emacs?)

sysdep.c uses symbols, TEXT_END and DATA_END that are #defined to 0 in
m-ibm*.h, and #defined to external vars in m-titan.h.
Thus, the statement "extern TEXT_END;" is an error on the ibm machines.

My fix:
    Change the symbols in m-titan.h to TEXT_END_EXT and DATA_END_EXT, and
patch sysdep.c.  To wit:

Yup, it's a problem :-); it'll be fixed in 4.1.

Thanks,
