I did it the hard way, and extracted 'calloc.o' from Llibc.a and hacked 
calloc into xalloc, then re-built Llibc.a.  This seems to get around the
problem, although you have to swap the old library back in to compile the
zmodem programs.

This seems to be a problem with SCO's dev kit, but I cannot find a fix 
for it from SCO.  I have Xenix 286 2.2.3, is the problem there in 2.3.2?

Well, now I've got ecu compiled and installed, but when run, I get the
1-line copyright message then a segmentation violation.  Sigh...
