compiling Nulib on Solaris 2.5

[hurry@imap2.asu.edu]

     I am attempting to compile Nulib version 3.24 which I picked up from
ground.  I am using a Sparc-based system running Solaris 2.5.  I have taken
enough programming so that I am familiar with very basic C.  However, I know
nothing about system dependencies.  I tried to compile nulib without modifying
the nudefs.h because it appears to be right.  It seems to default to System V
which is what appears when I login.  Anyhow, here is the output from executing
the makefile.

cc -O -s   -c  numain.c

In my experience with cc the "explicit cast" thing is something I've never
encountered.  Also, what about the other warnings.

     The executable is actually created but I wouldn't trust it with those odd
warnings.  Can anybody interpret it?
