Hi Ben - I just got this packages built and installed *yesterday* on my
site - SCO 3.2.4.2 - same as yours... I got through stage 2, tho, before
everything barfed the first time.  Anyway, what I did, was used the following
parms to configure: 

# ./configure --target=i386-*-sco3.2.4 --prefix=/u/local

                                       ^^ (My /dev/root is static @ 95% ...)

Everything went as recorded in the INSTALL docs - until I got to the compare
between stage 2 and stage 3 - char 22 on line 1 of all my .o files were
different.  Hmm... I went ahead and installed anyway and all seems, so far
to be working.  Will let you know after I compile groff today...

I hope this helps you.
