Thanks for the tip. I installed the following depots, exported CC=gcc, and
8.0.0beta1 built fine, no warnings or errors, and loads from 7.3.4 dump
just fine.
make-3.80-sd-11.22.depot.gz, bison-1.875-sd-11.22.depot.gz,
flex-2.5.4a-sd-11.00.depot.gz, gcc-3.3.2-sd-11.22.depot.gz
$psql -c "select version()"
version
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
PostgreSQL 8.0.0beta1 on ia64-hp-hpux11.23, compiled by GCC gcc (GCC) 3.3.2
