If I wrote a portable configure script which contained something

it would work unchanged on all those architectures. Take out the
vax and u3b commands and it will then crash when run on Solaris.

The same script will fail on Ububtu as well - I just checked they don't exist there.

This is an generic Unix application issue, not a Solaris one.

So which other "Unix" distributions still include these other than Solaris ?
