3433.0. "%VMSINSTAL-E-IVPFAIL, CXX 5.2 ALPHA 6.1" by CSC32::B_KNECHT () Wed Feb 05 1997 17:42

    A customer has tried to install C++ 5.2 on his ALPHA 7.1 system and
    received the following IVP error.  He tried reinstalling, and received
    the same errors.  He gets the errors when he manually runs the IVP.
    
    I have searched this notes conference for the error and versions used
    have found nothing being reported.  Could someone please see if this
    has been reported and if so what is the resolution?

3433.1Older header file lingering in sys$library??CSC32::E_VAETHSuffering from temporary brain cramp, stay tunedThu Feb 06 1997 13:481
Do they have an older header file in sys$library?? Perhaps stdlib.h??

Bob,
	I checked the records and can find no problem matching this symptom.
I suggest upgrading to the latest version (5.2 is getting long in the tooth),
making sure that the customer reads the instructions and release notes, and trys
again.  If he has the same problem with the latest version, or he has some
special need to stay with 5.2, let us know and we can help track down the
problem.

I finally was able to get with this customer.  He has copies of a lot of C
header files in sys$library.  Some were actually VAX C headers. He says he has

That is where VAXC used to put things in its early days (as I recall).
