Well, I'm still working to find out where the problem
with <time.h> is, but the problem with <signal.h> is
in the fact that my sparc <signal.h> has a SIGBUS
variable, which I use in my program to capture
BUS-Errors. On my PC <signal.h> does not contain
SIGBUS. Both of them contain SIGSEGV, which I am also
using, so that doesn't give me problems.
You mantioned <inttypes.h> to be a standard from GCC,
then why isn't it in my include-dir? Or do I need to
install GLIBC or NEWLIB or something like that?
