If you see the stucture, the systems/ dir includes the add-ons for 
different OS. True, there is not any add-ons for Tru64 but it might be 
easy to code a configuration file for Tru64. In any case, Tiger should 
work almost fine with Tru64 because if the OS is not detected it will 
take the systems/default configuration (which might or might not apply 
to Tru64).

Not that I know of.

Tiger should work almost fine in Tru64 since, after all, it only uses 
shell, awk and sed. Some more complex tests use other programs (and 
might not work in Tru64 until adapted). Could you please test the 
current codebase in a Tru64 system? I don't have anyone available to 
make tests in.

PS: Note that you might want to have GNU's autoconf and GNU's make 
utilities to install it, but you can run in from the installation dir: 
'./tiger' should work out of the box. Send the results if you want to 
discuss errors.
