Well, we absolutely need mbstate_t, so we need to resolve all these other errors. Please be prepared for this becoming a many-months project. I don't know what you need the HP-UX port for - maybe it would be best to hire somebody who knows HP-UX, C, and Python.

That's an HPUX bug then, please report it to HP. They should assume
that any feature present in XPG 5 is also present in any later version.

Well, we absolutely need mbstate_t, so we need to resolve all these

Please be prepared for this becoming a many-months project. I don't
know what you need the HP-UX port for - maybe it would be best to hire
somebody who knows HP-UX, C, and Python.
