[vtkusers] HP NonStop porting issues?

[Eric M. LaFranchi]

Unable to find a cmake port for the HP-NonStop platform, I am working though the details of porting using cmake-2.8.0 source.
A few issues, so far:
1. After the initial part of the bootstrap process, I changed CMakeCache.txt to use the system curl (CMAKE_USE_SYSTEM_CURL:BOOL=ON).
   The socket link libraries were not found. This is not holding me up and I hope to solve the issue so that I don't have to manually edit the CMakeCache.txt   in the middle of the bootstrap process and then rerun bootstrap.

2. Here is the more puzzling problem. Manually running the next phase of the bootstrap, I get a link error because libdl.a (-ldl) is in the link command and libdl doesn't exist on this system.
   I am unable to locate the place in the code where (-ldl) can be removed from the link command. Maybe someone can help me with this issue?

Thanks, Eric

 Here is the output after running ./bootstrap or gmake:
