Well, it builds OK on real NetBSD 2.0, and although I haven't tried it on
the latest OpenBSD yet, I'd be surprised at any surprises, since OpenBSD has
been one of the most reliable (i.e. unchanging) platforms. It looks like
some kind of resource (virtual swap space? /tmp space?) was exhausted. Does
it always happen in ckuus5.c?

What happens if you run the make again? In this case it would start with
ckuus5.c, perhaps with less resources allocated.

It always fails on the ckuus5.c, even after a reboot. I tried
increasing the emulator virtual memory size to 256meg, but it didn't
help.

Also I tried building it on MVS Openedition with the POSIX option, but
looks like there is no param.h or utmp.h header file, and it got
errors looking for a timezone struct. Are there some other options I need
to add?

Then it's a "hard" resource limit that doesn't exit on real NetBSD. I
don't know if the limit is in the emulated VAX or what. Anyway, you can
find a lot of hints in documents like:

http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/ckccfg.html

for trimming the size by trimming features and/or size of things. ckuus5.c
is mainly taken up by the script language implementation. I'll bet if you
did:

make netbsd KFLAGS=-DNOSPL

it would build. But it also wouldn't include the scripting features.

If I knew the answer to that I would have a makefile target. Usually the
way this works is, somebody gives me access to the platform in question,
I spend a few hours figuring it out, and then I put together the needed
targed, along with any necessary source-code changes.
