4Samhain must either be compiled as 32bit application, or with the --disable-dnmalloc
5configure flag, because the OS provides no way to enforce usage of 32bit address space.

10(1) Pointed out by David: static linking is not supported on MacOS X,
11 see http://developer.apple.com/qa/qa2001/qa1118.html

13Solaris:
14-------
15
16(1) This was pointed out by rog [at] iis dot fhg dot de (Ingo Rogalsky):
17 "It isn't possible, to link samhain statically with Solaris.
18 This is a Solaris issue (see Sun Infodoc ID12624) and
19 not a samhain problem."

21Linux, maybe others:
22-------------------
23
24(1) With gdm (the GNOME display manager), GNOME version 1.2, using the
25 file hiding kernel module (configure option --enable-khide)
26 at system boot may cause problems (keyboard locked up).
27 No problem observed with kdm (the KDE display manager).
28
29 In case of problems, you may need to reboot into single-user mode and
30 edit the boot init script ... it should be noted that on the test
31 system, gdm sometimes locked up the keyboard on other occasions
32 (e.g. after a fsck).
33
34(2) With gcc 2.95.2 (and glibc 2.1.3), it is not possible to use
35 --with-database and --enable-debug at the same time (the code will
36 segfault). This is apparently a compiler bug, and it does not happen
37 with gcc 3.0.
