| 6 | Older versions of Sun Forte Developer 6 update 2 have a compiler bug |
| 7 | that cause "make check" to fail with a "Encounter BINCL entry" |
| 8 | diagnostic. To fix the bug, update to the latest set of Solaris and |
| 9 | Forte patches recommended by Sun. |
| 10 | |
| 11 | VMS and MS-DOS builds are probably broken right now. If you are able |
| 12 | to build Bison on either platform and you need to make changes to do |
| 13 | so, please submit those changes as a bug report. On VMS, you will |
| 14 | probably have to create Makefile from Makefile.in by hand. Remember |
| 15 | to do `SET COMMAND BISON' to install the data in `BISON.CLD'. |
| 16 | |
| 17 | Send bug reports to <bug-bison@gnu.org>. Please include the version |
| 18 | number from `bison --version', and a complete, self-contained test |
| 19 | case in each bug report. |
| 20 | |
| 21 | If you have questions about using Bison which the documentation does |
| 22 | not answer, send mail to <help-bison@gnu.org>. |
