Apparently, there is a bug in the pvm install shield or something,
because the .lib files which get installed appear to bo for watcom c++,
regardless of what choice you choose durring the install for a compiler.

You can see this by opening the file in notepad or any ascii viewer.


I managed to get the visual c++ .lib files from the web site, but I am
having MUCH trouble getting them to link correctly. They keep complaining
that they interfere with with the existing default libraries
(specifically, lib.a).

Does anyone know how to alleviate this problem?

Thanks,
-Dan
