Shame on me for not doing my homework and listening to someone else.
Here's the output from uname:

HP-UX *** B.11.00 U 9000/802

And the processor is PA RISC 2.0. This system was conceived last May
and has been patched with all the latest bundles and patches. Any
suggestions on how to get the kernel to compile? Again the error was:

Generating module: tnsmbmx...
Error: 0, file: /stand/build/mod_wk.d/tnsmbmx/lmod.o Fixup error:
Relocation applied to a PA2.0 instruction
som2elf : unknown reloc instruction (ERROR)
*** Error exit code 7

Stop.
config: make did an exit(1)

Thanks,
Rob
