almost. I had to play around a bit with setenv/unsetenv in libnbcompat,
and with ar_io.c in pax. I got it to build, but I have no way to test the
pax stuff. For that I had to create a bunch of defines to map from the
mtio.h defines to the tape.h ones, but I don't have a tape drive to see
if it works. (nor do I have access to use it if there was one. (yet))
I don't remember which compiler it used. Probably gcc.
