This is a bug in mk/chsDepend(.in) probably due to some difference in how sed works in Solaris compared to Linux. the mk/chsDepend shell script looks at a .chs file and tries to find all the lines that look like: {#import Some.Module.Name#} and then find the .chi files corresponding to those import lines. It looks from the error message that it's picking up "{#import" as if it were a module. The shell/sed code that is probably going wrong is: DEPS=`$GREP "{#import" $FULLNAME 2> /dev/null \ | $SED 'y/./\//;s/^{#import \(qualified \)*\([a-zA-Z1-9/]*\)#}.*/\2/'`; testing this with standard solaris sed (on Solaris 9) reveals the problem, standard Solaris sed is terrible! :-) The problem is that standard Solaris /usr/bin/sed does not allow * on sub-expressions, for example this sed regexp "\(bar\)*" does not match the string "bar bar". The other Solaris sed that is not on the path by default works fine (/usr/xpg4/bin/sed). Well actually it needs a minor patch too, it doesn't like the escape in "y/./\//", but if we change it to "y|.|/|" then it's happy. So the solution I think is for me to change the configure script to look for /usr/xpg4/bin/sed in preference to /usr/bin/sed on Solaris and also to make that other minor syntax fix. The workaround you can try is to edit mk/chsDepend and set SED to either gnu sed or to /usr/xpg4/bin/sed though in the latter case you'll also need to fix the "y|.|/|" bit. Then you'll need to make clean and make again.
