>Release:        1.3.4
>Environment:
Sun Ultra-1, Solaris 2.6 (aka SunOS 5.6) and its make, gcc 2.8.1
>Description:
After configuring apache 1.3.4 for suexec, make stops when trying to build 
suexec.o from suexec.c. This is due to a simple typo in the top-level Makefile.
The source code cannot be found and make exits with something like:

--------------------- screen output BEGIN --------------------------

gcc -c  -I../os/unix -I../include   -DSOLARIS2=260 \
                -DHTTPD_USER=\"www\" \
                -DUID_MIN=100 \
                -DGID_MIN=100 \
                -DUSERDIR_SUFFIX=\"public_html\" \
                -DLOG_EXEC=\"/usr/local/apache/logs/suexec_log\" \
                -DDOC_ROOT=\"/usr/local/apache/htdocs\" \
                -DSAFE_PATH=\"/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin\" \ suexec.c
gcc:  suexec.c: No such file or directory
gcc: No input files
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `suexec.o'
Current working directory /tmp/apache_1.3.4/src/support
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `build-support'
Current working directory /tmp/apache_1.3.4
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `build'

--------------------- screen output END --------------------------

The problem is the line
                -DSAFE_PATH=\"/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin\" \ suexec.c
                                                       ^^^
>How-To-Repeat:
I think, anyone who tries to build apache 1.3.4 with suexec gets this error.
I did exactly what is described in the README.configure example (line 98ff).

>Fix:
I fixed the problem by editing the Makefile manually. Here the patch

-------- patch BEGIN --------------------
181c181,182
<                       -DSAFE_PATH=\"$(suexec_safepath)\"' \
---
>                       -DSAFE_PATH=\"$(suexec_safepath)\" \
>               ' \
-------- patch BEGIN --------------------

A better way would be to correct the mistake in the templates/configure script,
but I lack the knowledge and time to do so.
