Yep. So goes SGI. I can't figure out why this error is showing up. When I
looked at the man page for strdup:
char *strdup (const char *s1);
which is how it looks to be used in async.c. I simply added a specific
type-cast:
notifyName = (char *) strdup(relname);
and it compiled async.c fine (of course, now I'll have to go through some
of the other files that also have strdup and change them).
I'm going to see if the SGI technical support considers this a bug or not.
