I have seen several pieces of software (PUREPerformix, a Sybase DB gateway product that try to compile with libstr.a, which does not exist on any of our HP boxes. So many pieces of software, in fact, that I decided to look into the problem. What we found from calling HP is that this is not an HP library. All of the software companies that I have called about this behavior say 'oops...it's a bug' which I assume means that this library exists on some platforms, but not for HP.
