From: Craig Metz <cmetz@thor.tjhsst.edu> Subject: MH 6.8 Porting Date: 2 Apr 1993 20:43:52 -0500
I was trying to port MH version 6.8 to Linux running GCC 2.3.3
and libc 4.3. It seems that due to rather bad style, MH uses the actual
members of the "FILE *" structure. Unfortunately, libc (probably because
of the GNU libc) uses a different internal format for this structure
than MH expects (and apparently, other UNIXen provide), thereby making
for some porting problems. Has anybody ported MH 6.8 to Linux such that
it will compile in a modern environment, and if so, could someone please
send me or upload to one of the major sites either the source or
(preferably) the diffs to get a stock MH 6.8 to compile under Linux?

PS: Yes, I've tried the binary distribution on sunsite. It is
*OLD* (Linux-wise), and it is also configured very differently than
what I need.
