Dear Collegauges,

We are trying to install htdig 3.2.0b3 on our SPARC/Solaris 2.8 platform using 
gcc 3.3.  However, the configuration failed with the following error message:
We have repeatedly tried to find others who have successfully built htdig from 
source on our platform, but have found no one.  We also filed a bug report at:

   http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=4593

but still did not get any response.  This is a final summary of our problem, 
sent out as one last effort to find help and warn others who may be 
contemplating the same effort.  A description of the problem follows.

Best Regards,

SUMMARY

While compiling htdig 3.2.0b3 on Solaris 2.8 using gcc 3.3, we observe the 
following error message:

We already specified the host type in the configuration option by:
