My plan is to kill the Solaris bugs reported, hopefully next week.
For this I need your help, see below.

No need to compile libtool as root, please don't do that.
All you would need is..

..for installation, replace `make install' with
# su -c 'make install'

All of compilation and testing runs fine as user.

Please rerun the test groups verbosely, as explained in the README file,
to see if the bug you experience is the same as a bug already reported.
Please also report the exact configure line you issued.

Also please check that the fourth test which was SKIPped is
demo-nopic.test.

Thanks,
Ralf
