UnixWare 7 patches for current CVS code.
Billy G. Allie <bill.allie@mug.org> — 1999-04-17T20:39:20Z
Configure no longer recognizes UnixWare 7 as a supported OS. The attached patches will correct this. With these patches, config.guess will produce: i?86-pc-unixware7.0.1 (where ? is 3 or 5 depending on the chipset) which config.sub will accept and pass on to configure. Configure was changed to recognize 'unixware*' as a valid type instead of 'sysv5'. I belive these changes brings the recognition of the unixware systems in line with the intent of the config.guess and config.sub routines (Intel x86 machines identified by iX86-pc constructs followed by -OSname). The other option would be to have config.guess output 'i?86-pc-sysv5-unixware7.0.1', but I did not have time to get it to work in that form (yet).

I don't think we can apply these because config.guess comes from GNU configure, not from us. Is there something we can do to template/.similar to fix this? Can someone tell Billie how to get the proper .similar string for Unixware so we can add it, and rerun configure? > Configure no longer recognizes UnixWare 7 as a supported OS.
