Cc -Aa +fails to define _HPUX_SOURCE and thus will not configure the collector +correctly. + +Incremental collection support was reccently added, and should now work. + +In spite of past claims, pthread support under HP/UX 11 should now work. +Define GC_HPUX_THREADS for the build. Incremental collection still does not +work in combination with it. + +The stack finding code can be confused by putenv calls before collector +initialization. Call GC_malloc or GC_init before any putenv calls.
