Ricardo, The issue is with the test command, not necessarily sh. All borne shells I've ever used provide a built-in for test, though.
I looked this command up... Both dash and Ash provide the -nt command to compare the date of two files. Can you do a 'man sh' to double check that the Solaris sh also have this command for the test built-in? By the way, this would be a GNU autoconf bug.
