BUG in hints/hpux.sh

Tom, I was not able to run the Configure script on my new HP D-server running HP-UX 10.01.
The problem was a single line in the hints/hpux.sh file:

xxcontext=`grep $(printf %#x $(getconf CPU_VERSION)) /usr/include/sys/unistd.h`

I commented this line out and inserted the following to get a clean execution under the
Bourne shell:

DECCPU=`getconf CPU_VERSION`
HEXCPU=`printf %#x ${DECCPU}`
xxcontext=`grep $HEXCPU /usr/include/sys/unistd.h`

I am very happy to have Perl 5.003 on my new development box.
