Subject: problem with installation of stix

Distribution: gnu

 I have a problem with stix, but I'm not sure if it's a bug or not because
 I'm using a Sun Sparc 10 running sunos4.1.3 which is not exactly in the
 list of supporting system.

 I just installed smalltalk-1.1.1 without any error messages from the
 installation process. I installed mst with window library, but without
 the readline interface, and it passed running on the test suite.
 I also set SMALLTALK_KERNEL and SMALLTALK_IMAGE to different locations.
 When I started to install stix, the process failed to succeed the
 following command (run in stix subdirectory):
 
 mst -Vi t.st

 The following is the output:
