Yes, I went through your complete logfile in detail and everything
really build fine. But once the programs were _installed_ (into the
temporary area) the programs immediately start to fail with the "Cannot
find ELF" error. Between the build and the install mainly just is
the "strip" step, so this has to be the problem. Usually AFAIK GNU
strip is not broken under Solaris, but I don't know what particular
version your /usr/local/bin/strip is. Perhaps it is an ancient one and
hence it fails. But I'm sure with this GNU strip deinstalled the build
will now succeed as OpenPKG works fine under all Solaris versions and
architectures.
