[q-lang-users] Problems building Q 5.3 on Mac OS X 10.2.5

[Mike H. <m3...@rc...>]

Hello, all!  Sorry to bother everyone with this.  Is there another 
group where I can request help building Q 5.3 on Mac OS X 10.2.5 
(ancient, I know).
I not usually a newbie at building from source distributions, but this 
one has me stumped.

'Configure' ran OK.  It didn't find many extensions, but that's OK for 
now.  I'd be happy if I could get a basic 'Q' up and running.

$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 3.1 20020420 (prerelease)

Have tried the -no-cpp-precomp flag from the README; doesn't help until 
further along in the build process.

Have tried -disable-shared; didn't help.

Have tried pulling the regex + glob libs from the clib Makefile
then the symbols aren't found, instead of being duplicated.

I'd be happy to dig and find out more, if anyone has any pointers or 
suggestions.

Thank you!
