I just did that on my domain host, which runs Linux, without problems.
Copied the hypermail executable to my ~/bin directory, and that was
that. I just did "./configure" and "make", not "make install". I even
run hypermail out of a qmail pipe. Or I did until my domain host broke
qmail, but perhaps one day they'll figure out how to fix it again. ;-)
I've also compiled hypermail under cygwin on my PC (of course, everybody
has root permissions on a PC), and the only difficulty I've had
compiling it with non-GNU compilers on the PC are the strange places
some of the compilers put some of the headers and some definitions which
they stuck into the wrong header files.
Once you figure out where your compiler system put everything, hypermail
compiles and runs fine. So if you're desperate enough....
