My problem is actually the opposite of yours. All the processes
die when they get SIGHUP, including shell, which is supposed to stick
around long enough to set a blackout. Anyways, I used gcc 2.7.2.1.

Yes, unfortunately.

Yes. My HP-UX system puts dialup/terminal sessions under /dev/tty??

This is weird. It's etremely annoying when things like this

Yep. They do that; but, they can often be very understanding as

Yep, some more stuff to stick into the "System Configuration
Step". We don't have any modems directly attached to our system, so I
simply disabled all the modem stuff, except tq. Hmm, perhaps this
should also be an installation option.
