Build failure on Solaris

[Bill Moseley]

Now I really do need some help.  Please.

The *.al version of a convenience library is not being built on solaris:

Testing on sourceforge compile farm.  Most machines build fine, but when I
get to Solaris 8 (I was able to duplicate this problem on another Solaris
8 machine, too):


 A. [x86] Linux 2.4 (Debian 2.2)  [OK!]
 B. [x86] Linux 2.4 (Redhat 7.3)  [OK!]
 G. [Alpha] Linux 2.2 (Debian 3.0)  [OK!]
 L. [Sparc - Ultra60] Linux 2.4 (Debian 3.0)  [OK!]
 M. [Sparc - R220] Sun Solaris (8) #1 [FAIL]

No libreplace.al here.                                                      

Here's my Makefile.am for the top dir:

And for my libreplace:
