problems with cvs, rcs and diff

Hello,

We have to set up a version control system.
A script is used for this, which runs without errors at a Linux PC I
tested
(cvs 1.11, rcs 5.7, diffutils 2.7).
Now to the Alpha-machine:
cvs 1.11 compiled without problems

But the script to check in a project gave me the errormessage:
rcs error: unknown option: -kb

So I tried to install rcs 5.7 which resulted in:
configure: error: cannot find a working diff3 library program

So I downloaded the diffutils 2.7:
But this ended in even more tragic errormessages:
cc -c -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -g fnmatch.c
cc: Error: fnmatch.c, line 67: In this statement, "FNM_CASEFOLD" is not
declared
. (undeclared)
      c = FOLD (c);
----------^
cc: Error: fnmatch.c, line 74: In this statement, "FNM_FILE_NAME" is not
declare
d. (undeclared)
          else if ((flags & FNM_FILE_NAME) && *n == '/')
----------------------------^
cc: Error: fnmatch.c, line 202: In this statement, "FNM_LEADING_DIR" is
not decl
ared. (undeclared)
  if ((flags & FNM_LEADING_DIR) && *n == '/')
---------------^
*** Exit 1
Stop.


The versions of rcs and diff used before
are those of the original installation
So I would like to know which version(s) of cvs
are (recommended to be) runnig under True64 V5.0?
Which versions of rcs, diff are needed therefore?
What needs to be configured in a different way?

Thanks a lot
Harald
