This is genuine. VC++ by default adds a line like
# endif // myfile_h_include
at the end of the file, w/o a newline. I added newlines to some of the=20
files, but not all of them. When you run into that, feel free to change=20
it.

Try
which cvs
which ssh

If both are there, just
export CVS_RSH=3Dssh
and then use cvs as usual. If not they should be available in source code=
,=20
e.g., from the FSF. Usually, xemacs has a built-in interface to it; not=20
sure how to make it work w/ ssh though.

Actually, it says that it doesn't throw any exceptions. A subclass can't=20
throw more exceptions than the parent class, and=20
std::exception::~exception() doesn't throw any. Hence, our destructor=20
can't neither. In general, throw(ex1, ex2, .., exn) says that it throws=20
only the exceptions given in the list, which in our case is empty.
I thought I changed that (since it compiles for me).

Call configure as
./configure --prefix=3D<home>
where <home> is your home directory. Then make install. This puts=20
everything in $(HOME)/lib, $(HOME)/include, etc. I think that=20
--prefix=3D$(HOME) doesn't work, so write out the full path.
