 gcc-2.95.xx is not supported on hpux11.  This one of the various different
 failure modes.
 
 It may also be the case that gcc-3.0.x will not work on your platform -- 
 you've got one or more patches from HP which affect GCC's behavior in
 various unpleasant ways.
 
 On a more positive note the current development tree knows how to deal
 with the HP patches you've got installed on that system and should
 work properly.
