RE: Compiling the devtools for Sun

Hi,

I compiled the devtools on Solaris x86 some days ago.

This is due to an error in the compiler. Install patch 111680-08, this will
fix this error.

I did a softlink on /opt/sfw/bin/gmake to /opt/sfw/make and made sure that
/opt/sfw/bin is in your PATH before /usr/ccs/bin:

bash-2.05$ which make
/opt/sfw/bin/make


I did alot of "hand" tuning, you should have a look a the config files in 

	TOOLSRC/sys/src/tt/comp*.pl.tt

Here is the compiler specific stuff. I had to play with the macros SVR4, SUN
and I386. I can send you a diff against a current tree if you like to.


Gretings,
