zsh HP-UX build problems

[eavis@xxxxxxxxxxx]

I downloaded zsh-4.0.6.tar.bz2 and did the normal build steps.  I have
shown some, but not all, of the output of each command in this message.

% ./configure --prefix=$HOME
[...]

% make
[all seemed to build correctly.  It didn't work with make -j, but that's
another story]

% make test
[several tests passed, then:]
./V01zmodload.ztst: starting.

[hangs]

So the tests depending on dynamic loading fail, and also Y01completion
hangs.  To work around the problem, I unpacked a fresh tarball and did:

% ./configure --prefix=$HOME --disable-dynamic

Here a lot of the tests want to find a 'zpty' command which has not been
built.  So I think there are two main bugs to report: the failure of the
dynamic loading tests (or arguably the failure of --configure to autodetect
that dynamic loading won't work), and the failure of the tests wanting
'zpty'.

What can I do to track down these bugs further?  Please cc replies to me
since I do not read this list.
