G'day,

With limited knowledge of UNIX, I am trying to 'make' the grep-1.6 package.
I've typed ./configure to produce a Makefile for our system, which looks OK,
but 'make' produces this sort of error:

cc -g -I. -DSTDC_HEADERS=1 -DHAVE_UNISTD_H=1  -c dfa.c
ccom: Warning: dfa.c, line 162: "const" not yet implemented
           const _charset src;
      ----------------------^
ccom: Error: dfa.c, line 162: illegal type combination
           const _charset src;
      ----------------------^
ccom: Error: dfa.c, line 168: illegal indirection
          dst[i] = src[i];
      ------------------^
ccom: Warning: dfa.c, line 193: "const" not yet implemented
           const _charset s1;
      ---------------------^
ccom: Error: dfa.c, line 193: illegal type combination
           const _charset s1;

and so on ... always complaining about "const"

This is on a DECstation 4000, running Ultrix V4.2A, and no gcc.
Can you help?
