Re: Shared libraries build on Linux, not on Solaris 10 (gcc)

[Jason Curl]

Bad posting to my own posts so soon. But I've tried a few other systems 
I have at hand.

* Solaris 2.10 uses the packaged version of GCC. (fails, have to use 
--disable-shared for it to work)
gcc (GCC) 3.4.2

* Solaris 2.10 using SunStudio 11 (cc, works)
ganymede:jcurl:sol$ cc -V
cc: Sun C 5.8 2005/10/13

It just dies during configure. I had to add 'LD=/usr/ccs/bin/ld 
AR=/usr/ccs/bin/ar'. It would be easier if configure just "found" these 
libraries on Solaris without having to explicitly set them. I'll 
probably write some macros to do this for me. Other than that it works.

* SuSE 10.0 Linux uses a newer version. (works)
gcc (GCC) 4.0.2 20050901 (prerelease) (SUSE Linux)
