Ah, yeah. Theres work to be done in that area for PCP on Mac OS X
too, if anyones keen.

Which libraries are those? For the Windows port, I worked backward
from "which compiler is used for the open source Qt" (mingw) and used
that for PCP to avoid these kinds of issues.

People will probably want the GUI tools on OpenSolaris at some point
(probably about 5 seconds after base PCP is ported :)

Ew, sounds like thats going to be a problem for the GUI tools
and pmdumptext.

OK. I have a similar outstanding issue on Windows where it doesn't
quite pick up iptypes.h (finds it but wont compile) ... using it
in the PCP source is fine though.
cheers.
