Hi, 
   I've compiled GTK under Digital Unix 4. The last version (1.0.3) seems 
to work very well. There are some specs from the system:
(uname -a)
OSF1 uts.univ.trieste.it V4.0 564 alpha
(cc -V)
DEC C V5.2-040 on Digital UNIX V4.0 (Rev. 564)

Compiling it with all warnings on I get only a couple of:

cc: Warning: ../gdk/gdktypes.h, line 388: In this declaration, the enumeration
constant GDK_STRUCTURE_MASK is out of the range -32768 to 32767. (enum16bit)
  GDK_STRUCTURE_MASK		= 1 << 15,
--^

  On following files (and lines)

../gdk/gdktypes.h (lines 388-393,478-480)
../gtk/gtkwidget.h, (lines 51-54)

(I don't know what the ANSI standard says about enumeration...)

And two missing prototypes:

gdkwindow.c, line 1597: In this statement, there is no prototype for
"strcmp". (warnimplfunc)
  if (strcmp (typelist[i], "ALL"))
--------------^
cc: Warning: gmessages.c, line 64: In this statement, there is no
prototype for "abort". (warnimplfunc)
  abort ();
--^

Bye.
