Correct. You also need to avoid /usr/ucblib like the plague, and
other niceties.
There's a Solaris FAQ somewhere that gives the rundown on all the
stupid things Sun did on Solaris from a development point of view - the
compiler, the tools, the libs. The original poster, if interested in
compiling anything under Solaris, should track that down (anyone remember
which FAQ that is?) and read it carefully.
I apologize; I was being unduly terse in my first message ;>.
