Greets --

I ftped the rc sources from archone.tamu.edu, downloaded them, and
tried to compile them. Unfortunately, most of /usr/include/unistd.h
seems incompatible with rc's proto.h, and there are a couple of calls
which are outright errors in /usr/include/unistd.h, including a
too-many-argument call to setpgrp in some heavy-looking rc code.
Since I have no idea what rc is trying to do at that point, I gave
up my attempts at debugging and standardizing and am now looking
for gcc2.2.2-compiled rc, preferably with source code so I can see
what I should have done.

As usual, if you're interested in this too, send me mail and I'll
let you know what I've found.

Felix
