The first are warnings only.  The syntax errors I can guess about, possibly,
but don't know.  I have gotten rn and trn running under sco unix with no
problems; a while ago, I posted diffs for trn for SCO UNIX (using the system
compiler) to comp.sources.d, I believe (this was several months ago).  I
don't have them, any more, but if someone *really* wants them, I could
probably try to recreate them again.

I think the main problem I had was that the system C compiler gets confused,
at times, if an include file doesn't end with a blank line; as a result, I
changed one of the include files to have an extra line in it.  That was
about it.
