Dynamic loading support requires that executables be linked with -ldld.
The alternative is to build the collector without defining DYNAMIC_LOADING
in gcconfig.h and ensuring that all garbage collectable objects are
accessible without considering statically allocated variables in dynamic
libraries.
The collector should compile with either plain cc or cc -Ae. CC -Aa
fails to define _HPUX_SOURCE and thus will not configure the collector
correctly.
Incremental collection support was reccently added, and should now work.
Thread support for HP/UX 11 Pthreads was also recently added. It is still
flakey in this release. (It has only been tested on a uniprocessor. Even
there some fraction of thread creation calls fail with a not-yet-understood
error return from sem_wait.)
