Mmm, well, there's bazillions of configure bugs, we'll be fixing them
forever.  If you can see how to patch up the OSF support, go ahead,
but I wouldn't let this platform deter us from a release.  I was
futzing with the Solaris support today, we still don't support shared
libs on Solaris (the original ELF system, upon which LIinux shared
libs are modelled).  So there's lots to do in this area, over time.
