apache run issues - miscellaneous
• third parameter of int main(int argc, char **argv,
char **envp) not passed by MPE; workaround:
extern char **environ;
envp = environ;
• proxy_cache.c tries to use link() to create hard links
• link() exists on MPE, but always returns an error
• already supported rename() workaround for other OSes
• proxy_util.c filename “@” characters
• already supported other OSes which lack @
• mpe_dl_stub() workaround to support DSOs before patch
