a memo on making bash 2.0.5b with HP ANSI C on HP-UX 11.00

[Tetsuo Kuge]

Hello bash maintainers,
I happened to use bash to check Samba's behavior
on HP-UX 11.00 with HP ANSI C compiler in these days.
  o  OS/hardware
         HP-UX B.11.00 U
         HP9000/800/A400-44
  o  Compiler
         B.11.11.06     HP C/ANSI C Compiler 

Since this was my first time to treat bash,
I had to have some backtracks to build bash-2.05b.
Here are some memos:

0) configure of bash tends to create PA2.0 code.
   To let it configure to execute PA2.0 and PA1.1,
   I set CC="cc -Ae +DAportable" after trying
   CFLAGS and CC.
   If it is not feature to neglect CFLAGS, please
   append this behavior to the end of bug list of
   configure.

1) since strtold(3C) on HP-UX 11.00 is not compatible
   as expected by bash-2.05b, I had to set
     ac_cv_c_long_double=no 
   on configuring.

2) I met with a compile error on making.
   I had to apply following patch to lib/malloc/malloc.c
   since there remained no code between the label
     free_return:
   and the end of internal_free().
