GNUstep on Solaris 2.6

Hi, -

recently I tried to run GNUstep on Solaris 2.6.

Gladly, most of the required packages (gcc33, etc) can be obtained from
www.sunfreeware.com. Only ffcall, gmp and Window Maker had to be
compiled locally.

The build process of GNUstep ran very smoothly.

However, I'm unable to run any application. Issuing openapp Ink.app at
the console results in a lot of X-Windows error messages followed by a
core dump.

Maybe someone can give me some advice. An excerpt of the error script is
posted below. I was using the xlib backend. (Is -art supposed to work on
Solaris?)

Thanks,
Martin Brecher
