thx for answering

i've taken it from there of course; but i thought it might be helpfull for you to know, that this archive came from sunsite resp. tsx-11 (gwdg.de is a mirror site).

indeed, i have been using gawk 2.13p2...

...wasn't possible for me to compile gawk 2.15.x...

so now i'm using gawk 2.14A (tsx-11 --- also available on the mirror site gwdg.de, of course). --- :-)))

and sed 2.03.

seem to work (still are lot of warnings) but:

$ compiling storage/file/fd.c
$ fd.c: In function `AssertLruRoom':
$ fd.c:382: `OPEN_MAX' undeclared (first use this function)
$ fd.c:382: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
$ fd.c:382: for each function it appears in.)
$ fd.c: In function `fileNameOpenFile':
$ fd.c:539: `OPEN_MAX' undeclared (first use this function)
$ fd.c: In function `AllocateFile':
$ fd.c:800: `OPEN_MAX' undeclared (first use this function)
$ make[1]: *** [/mnt/data/pub/postgres/obj.linux/storage/file/fd.o] Error 1
$ make[1]: Leaving directory `/mnt/data/pub/postgres'
$ done

the first `Error', that occur :-( what is to do now?

BTW i'm missing `make clean' ;-) --- is there something simular?
