For those of you Solaris users who are compiling from source:
If you get "checking return type of sprintf... configure: error: can
not run test program while cross compiling" such as in posts:

and many more... than I have a fix for you. The SFW version of gcc and
gc++ that ships with Solaris 8 (and I believe also the versions that are
available on sunfreeware.com) are slightly faulted. You need to have
your LD_LIBRARY_PATH set. For the SFW packages make sure /opt/sfw/lib is
in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH (and I'm not quite sure what it is for the
sunfreeware.com versions, probably /usr/lib or /usr/local/lib).
That should fix the problem both on Sparc and Intel (I've personally
only tested this on intel, but I've been told the same situation exists
on the sparc versions too). Thanks to friend and co-worker Phil Brown
(www.bolthole.com) for his help.
Developers: I hope this can be added to the documentation somewhere
since it's such a popular question.
sql (that's to get past the filter, ignore that).
