Help with swarm installation |

Hi,
I am installing swarm 1.1 from a source distribution on a DEC Alpha
for one of our lecturers. I decided to perform a source installation instead
of getting a pre-built Alpha package so I could learn how it all fitted
together.
I have finally managed to get it to compile and link. We had virtually
none of the pre-requisites - not even GNU C or make. About the only thing we
had was Tcl/Tk but that's version 8.0 and there was a little hacking to do.
I also ran into a bug making libffi with the native DEC assembler and needed
help from the FFI people.
Anyway, after it got built without error messages, I tried to test the
installation by building the application simpleCBug. Firstly, I got the
error:
class.c:117: failed assertion `__objc_class_hash'
After following clues in the code, I put a call to __objc_init_class_tables
before initSwarm. I then got the following error:
"objc runtime: cannot find class Module_super_"
If you could give me any ideas, clues? etc., I'd appreciate it greatly.
Details of the installation:
OS: OSF1 V4.0 564
GCC: 2.7.2
GMAKE: 3.75
BLT: 2.3
FFI: 1.18
TCL: 8.0
TCLOBJC: 1.3
TK: 8.0
