The patch applied cleanly to the current CVS view, so I used that. I was
unable to compile AbiHello, however. From the hello directory, typing make
resulted in a whole bunch of errors where the DialogFactory was calling all
sorts of dialogs out of ../src/wp/ap/unix/
I applied both the AbiHello.patch and config.patch. Any ideas why this
wouldn't work for me?
