Thank you.

also, here is another annoying little thing :

$ ls -l cxx/osdoprnti.cc
-rw-r--r--   1 dclarke  csw     2002 May 30 19:36 cxx/osdoprnti.cc

#include <iostream>
/* This next line was #include <cstdarg> which does not work with Solaris */
#include <stdarg.h>    /* for va_list and hence doprnt_funs_t */
#include <cstring>    /* for strlen */

that has to change or bad things happen also.

I'll give your modification a whirl right now and see what happens.
