Ok, I followed your advice and removed the soaris built gcc from sunfreeware and downloaded the source instead. How ever now I am getting this message when I try to compile gcc: # /usr/local/gcc-2.95.3/configure --prefix=/usr/local/gnu Configuring for a sparc-sun-solaris2.8 host.

I hate to show my ignorance but I am unfamiliar with SFW version of gcc that comes with Solaris 2.8. Could you clue me in? By the way, it is correct that I am using gcc 2.95.3 from the sunfreeware binary distribution. It's been a pain for several applications. (OpenSSH, etc). Matt. George

Matt, According to Sun http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/freeware.html, gcc 2.95.3 is included on the Solaris Software Companion CD which is part of Solaris 8, Update 07/01. There are links there to download the entire CD or individual packages from it. I have not tried it, but I assume this

Hi. This didn't seem to make it to the list the first time so let's try again. BTW is anybody else receiving each mail twice from the list? It did, it's just that no one answered it. :] Not me, the last time I thought that was happening, it had to do with my mail sorting rules in Outlook.

I don't think the manual page at http://www.mysql.com/doc/S/o/Solaris.html is much help here. It mentions setting ac_cv_sys_restartable_syscalls=${ac_cv_sys_restartable_syscalls='no'} in your config.cache in case of a particular error, not the one reported here. I think I remember reading

Well, this changes things (in my mind, anyway). Now that we know it can be done, the likely explanation is that something is wrong with the gcc installation for people who report this. It's strange though, since a few people who've reported this have claimed to be able to successfully build
