Hi Michal,

if used it comes from commandline, or evironment var; but usually its not defined, and the other case happens where it then get defined to use the getenv() call.
The whole NetWare build is don with these hand-tweaked Makefiles - no configure...
altough I can compile with cross-gcc - I also have to compile with Metrowerks compiler;
and since I'm no configure wizzard at all its anyway easier for me to work with these makefiles.

If however you are interested in, and have some spare time - then you're welcome to contact me privately, and I give you an account on my Linux testbox where you could try if you can get configure to work at least with gcc-cross....
I would love to learn from someone who's more advanced how to make configure running with NetWare....
there also come immediately two other projects in mind where I would love to see that happen too:
MySQL (which even _should_ run with configure, but in fact it doesnt) and Apache2 (never tried up to now).
I've recently fixed the cross-compiler so it should now be possible to fully control linkage from commandline, formerly this was not possible.

thanks, Guenter.
