That sounds dangerous to me:  there's *always* an HP/UX build problem, if
you count (as I do) getting threads to work.  Every release, some HP/UX user
submits a patch that breaks the build for other HP/UX users.  So unless
we've got a bona fide HP/UX expert on tap now (do we? that would be way cool
<wink>), don't hold up solving a clear and widespread Linux problem by
waiting for one to appear.
