Porting Zoo 2.01 to a Sun 3/260 running Sun/OS 4.0.3.

[David R Kohr]

I'm trying to port Rahul Dhesi's data-compressing archive program Zoo
(version 2.01) to a Sun 3/260 running Sun/OS 4.0.3.  (Zoo would be nice to
have on our Sun's because it runs on many other machines, such as IBM
PC's.)  However, when I make Zoo using the "mkbsd" script, the resulting
binary dies with the error "stack overflow in lzd()" when I try to do a
test decompression of a sample archive.

Has anyone successfully ported Zoo 2.01 to the machine/OS combination that
I've mentioned above?  I had no trouble compiling and running Zoo on a
VaxStation II running 4.3 BSD, so I suspect that there may be machine
dependencies in the Zoo source that will prevent it from running on a Sun
in its current form.

Thanks,
