I'll try that, but compiling with ibmcxx seemed to work successfully. I
think I'll also give gcc a try.

One problem is that using the Transarc partition structure, you need to
be absolutely sure to never run a standard fsck/v3fshelper, or all your
data will go down the drain. I have also seen servers crash in a way
that only fsck -y would repair the superblock.
