mxml.h and strlcpy.h are part of the elog tar ball. When untar'ed, they get copied
into a separate directory:

...
-rwxr-xr-x ritt/lke      15090 2005-05-09 13:09:54 elog-2.5.9/eloglang.japanese

drwxr-xr-x ritt/lke          0 2005-05-09 13:09:54 mxml/
-rwxr-xr-x ritt/lke      45577 2005-05-09 13:09:54 mxml/mxml.c
-rwxr-xr-x ritt/lke       2198 2005-05-09 13:09:54 mxml/strlcpy.c

-rwxr-xr-x ritt/lke        567 2005-05-09 13:09:54 mxml/strlcpy.h

I have right now no access to 3.4. Once I get it, I will address the errors
occuring there.

Ah, now I need to figure out how to pickup the new includes.  
BTW, personally I wouldn't take my word regarding the 3.4 errors -- I was simply
trying an alternative version and it is likely that the way ours is configured is the
problem.

Thanks!

Ok, now I see the issue - the tar extract created the mxml directory in the root (not
under the created directory elog-2.5.9).  Is there a reason why these includes are not
placed in the src dir like the regex.h/.c include?

Ack, ok, I moved the includes into src and tried re-compiling -- and received several
"undefined symbol" errors from the linker.  Clearly the libraries cannot be moved into src?

Yes. I use these files in several other projects as well, and want to maintain only a
single copy. So I have

elogd-x.x.x/
elogd-x.x.x/src/
....
mxml/
mxml/strlcpy.h
mxml/strlcpy.c
mxml/mxml.c
mxml/mxml.c
...
other-project-x.x.x/
other-project-x.x.x/

So both elogd and "other-project" can use strlcpy.c and mxml.c. If I would copy it to
elogd-x.x.x/src and fix a bug there, "other-project" would use a separate copy and not
profit from the bug fix. So I would have to mainain verious copies of the same file, which
make things complicated. I compile everything also under windows, so I cannot use soft
links. If there is a better way of how to do it, please let me know.

No undefined functions here. I guess you have an old Makefile? Just use the complete tar

Ok, now I have it.  Old Makefile because I had to perform some deletions to make "make" work
right under Solaris.  Basically, I took out the ifdef structures - "make" was blowing up on
these.  Everything now compiles perfectly -- don't change anything.  Thanks for that last pointer.

There seems to be a small problem with the new "Date/Time format <attribute>" implementation. It works great for the detailed view of a single entry:

But fails to work on the list view (same entry, the Date column is formated as it should):

Relevant config part:

Time format Time Start = %H:%M:%S
Time format Time End = %H:%M:%S
