Line 39 in the file is this: void *mempcpy (void *restrict __dest, void const *restrict __src, size_t __n); But the HP-UX C compiler needs -AC99 in order to enable the restrict keyword, according to this man page: man cc ... -Amode Specify the compilation standard to be used by the compiler. mode can be one of the following letters: ... C99 This option needs to be used for C99 specific features. For example, it enables keywords like restrict and typeof to be recognized. Without this option, the keywords __restrict__ and __typeof__ need to be used instead. If I force -AC99 then that file compiles. I did not yet try a full compilation that way. Bob
