Hi:
I've been trying to install 1.20 (reverted back to 1.19, too). (tru64 unix on an alpha (compaq DS40) I can configure, make and make check just fine in my home directory, but when trying to do it in the install directory (on another filesystem) the make check testsuite fails on 26,27,30,31,32,33,34 and 35. doing a diff on he config.h, the only difference I can see is #define HAVE_WORKING_O_NOATIME 0
---
> #define HAVE_WORKING_O_NOATIME 1,
My guess (can't tell on the tru64 from fstab) is that incrementals won't work on a filesystem with noatime -
I don't know for sure that is the problem - suggestions, clues?
Thanks,

More info, the home directory is mounted on a netapp machine, which talks to tru64 Unix via NFS, the noatime check in configure is apparently being fooled by the delay in NFS. The 7 tests that fail in make check are all failing on the line AT_TAR_CHECK([.
Any clue as to where this is being set in the Make, so I can fool it into setting HAVE_WORKING_NOATIME to 1?
Or am I barking up the wrong tree?
Thanks,
Ward
