yes.

FreeBSD-7.0 built from source on Friday a few hours
before the gcc-4.2 import.  Hardware is 7 nodes
that are all Tyan K8SR based amd64 systems.  See

http://troutmask.apl.washington.edu/~kargl/hpc.html

I just added node16, so some numbers at the URL don't
add up correct.

Haven't tried any other sctp apps.  Do you have a suggestion?

None of the following work

./configure --with-device=ch3:sctp
./configure --with-device=ch3:sctp --prefix=/usr/local/mpich2
./configure --with-device=ch3:sctp --prefix=/usr/local/mpich2 --enable-fast
./configure --with-device=ch3:sctp --prefix=/usr/local/mpich2 --enable-fast \
            --enable-shared
./configure --with-device=ch3:sctp --prefix=/usr/local/mpich2 --enable-fast \
            --enable-shared  --enable-static

See follow up email.

Read it.

BTW, do you use bash?
