Hi...

	Hit one I can't seem to get around.  Will continue to try,
but if someone else has the solution for it, it would be appreciated:

cc -O -DLIBC_RCS -DSYSLIBC_RCS -D__DBINTERFACE_PRIVATE -DPOSIX_MISTAKE \
-I/usr/src/lib/libc/locale -DYP -c /usr/src/lib/libc/gen/assert.c -o assert.o
/usr/src/lib/libc/gen/assert.c:44: parse error before string constant
/usr/src/lib/libc/gen/assert.c:47: parse error before `{'
/usr/src/lib/libc/gen/assert.c:51: conflicting types for `abort'
/usr/include/stdlib.h:80: previous declaration of `abort'
/usr/src/lib/libc/gen/assert.c:51: warning: data definition has no type or storage class
/usr/src/lib/libc/gen/assert.c:53: parse error before `}'
*** Error code 1

Stop.
*** Error code 1

Stop.

	Now the error at line 44 eludes me completely.  The functions
matches, as far as I can see, the define in /usr/include/assert.h

	Now, to fix the conflicting types error, I modified assert.c
so that:

*** lib/libc/gen/assert.c.orig  Thu Dec  7 21:08:37 1995
--- lib/libc/gen/assert.c       Thu Dec  7 21:04:07 1995
***************
*** 48,53 ****
        (void)fprintf(stderr,
            "assertion \"%s\" failed: file \"%s\", line %d\n",
            failedexpr, file, line);
!       abort();
        /* NOTREACHED */
  }
--- 48,53 ----
        (void)fprintf(stderr,
            "assertion \"%s\" failed: file \"%s\", line %d\n",
            failedexpr, file, line);
!       (void)abort();
        /* NOTREACHED */
  }
---

	And, if I created this diff incorrectly, please let me know
how I should have made it.

Thanks..
