installing binutils on HPUX 10.20

[Chris Kollner]

I am trying to build the programs from the binutils-2.11.2.tar.gz source 
tarball on an HPUX 10.20 system, but am receiving compilation errors. 
Specifically, it's having problems with some of the system include files. 
After running the 'configure' script (which correctly recognizes that it's HPUX 
10.20) and launching make, I get the following error(s): 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
In file included from /usr/include/sys/stat.h:28,
from fdmatch.c:53:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Even though the type 'blkcnt_t', and the type in the field prior, 'ad_long_t', 
are clearly defined, the compiler can't seem to resolve them. 
Even when I hack together a local version of stat.h just to try to get passed 
this error, it chokes on some typedefs in other .h files. 
Has anyone else encountered this problem? Should I be passing some argument to 
the 'configure' script? Even though it recognizes my operating system version, 
is it possible it just won't compile on HPUX?
