This doesn't belong into a single project's configury, IMO: as you wrote, many different projects are affected. If at all, a workaround belongs into the AC_LN_S macro of some future release of autoconf. However, even if this were done, it would take quite a while until the affected projects were upgraded to use that. > I let you decide what to do for next releases. Nothing, I'd say: with coreutils 8.31, you managed to install a version of ln that's effectively unusable on Solaris 10. I'd claim there's no point to try and detect/workaround this: the only sensible solution for those few people affected is to either backout coreutils 8.31 or use a locally patched version.
