Yes. jackpot.  I'm picking up the "ninstall" tool set and not the set
distributed from puffin.external.hp.com.  Let's see how painful it is
to get the newer toolset working...

BTW, I noticed "hppa1.0-hp-hpux11.00". Has anyone verified "hpux10.2O"
gcc tools produce the same output as "hpux11.00" flavor tools?
(I know they "should" but wouldn't even think of betting on it.)

I have access to several idle 11.X machines and will take another
look at using them. I didn't consider using them before because they
didn't have 10.20 installed.

thanks Matthew,
