NOTES:

C/C++ Softbench:

        All programs compiled on a PA RISC 2.0 system (polylog1) with HP
        compilers will provide a warning to the user during the link
        step (ld).  This warning will indicate that some of the modules
        linked are for PA RISC 2.0 systems and the result may not run on
        a PA RISC 1.x system.
