I recently tried to rebuild ingres from src on Gentoo 2006.1, only to discover that it does not! The issue is relatively simple - later versions of 'sort' not accept the +n arg and expect -k(n+1) instead.

So anyway for those of you who want to build from src (not that many I suspect...but anyway), this patch will make the build system work again.

I don't know Jam at all, so didn't try to be clever and do something that figured out which sort of 'sort' you had...

This HOWTO install the binaries on Gentoo may also help somebody:
