Using the libraries from the tru64 5.0 install CD works fine for
running programs on that CD. There does seem to be some problems with
different library versions, though. Matlab 5 would not run with libc
from the tru64 5.0 CD. I had to get some other ones. With the right
libraries Matlab runs fine with both 2.4.19-rc1 and earlier.
