-Generic notes about building Perl5 on Solaris:
-- Use /usr/ccs/bin/make.
-- If you use GNU make, remove its setgid bit.
-- Remove all instances of *ucb* from your path.
-- Make sure libucb is not in /usr/lib (it should be in /usr/ucblib).
-- Do not use GNU as or GNU ld, or any of GNU binutils or GNU libc.
-- Do not use /usr/ucb/cc.
-- Do not change Configure's default answers, except for the path names.
-- Do not use -lmalloc.
-- Do not build on SunOS 4 and expect it to work properly on SunOS 5.
-- /dev/fd must be mounted if you want set-uid scripts to work.

-Here are the gcc-related questions and answers from the Solaris 2 FAQ. Note
-the themes:
- - run fixincludes
- - run fixincludes correctly
- - don't use GNU as or GNU ld
-
-Question 5.7 covers the __builtin_va_alist problem people are always seeing.
-Question 6.1.3 covers the GNU as and GNU ld issues which are always biting
-people.
-Question 6.9 is for those who are still trying to compile Perl4.
-
-The latest Solaris 2 FAQ can be found in the following locations:
- rtfm.mit.edu:/pub/usenet-by-group/comp.sys.sun.admin
- ftp.fwi.uva.nl:/pub/solaris
-
-Perl5 comes with a script in the top-level directory called "myconfig" which
-will print a summary of the configuration in your config.sh. My summary for
-Solaris 2.4 and gcc 2.6.3 follows. I have also built with gcc 2.7.0 and the
-results are identical. This configuration was generated with Configure's -d
-option (take all defaults, don't bother prompting me). All tests pass for
-Perl5.001, patch.1m.
-
-Summary of my perl5 (patchlevel 1) configuration:
- Platform:
- osname=solaris, osver=2.4, archname=sun4-solaris
- uname='sunos poplar 5.4 generic_101945-27 sun4d sparc '
- hint=recommended
- Compiler:
- cc='gcc', optimize='-O', ld='gcc'
- cppflags=''
- ccflags =''
- ldflags =''
- stdchar='unsigned char', d_stdstdio=define, usevfork=false
- voidflags=15, castflags=0, d_casti32=define, d_castneg=define
- intsize=4, alignbytes=8, usemymalloc=y, randbits=15
- Libraries:
- so=so
- libpth=/lib /usr/lib /usr/ccs/lib /usr/local/lib
- libs=-lsocket -lnsl -ldl -lm -lc -lcrypt
- libc=/usr/lib/libc.so
- Dynamic Linking:
- dlsrc=dl_dlopen.xs, dlext=so, d_dlsymun=undef

-5.7) Why do I get __builtin_va_alist or __builtin_va_arg_incr undefined?
-
- You're using gcc without properly installing the gcc fixed
- include files. Or you ran fixincludes after installing gcc
- w/o moving the gcc supplied varargs.h and stdarg.h files
- out of the way and moving them back again later. This often
- happens when people install gcc from a binary distribution.
- If there's a tmp directory in gcc's include directory, fixincludes
- didn't complete. You should have run "just-fixinc" instead.
-
- Another possible cause is using ``gcc -I/usr/include.''
-
-6.1) Where is the C compiler or where can I get one?
-
- [...]
-
- 3) Gcc.
-
- Gcc is available from the GNU archives in source and binary
- form. Look in a directory called sparc-sun-solaris2 for
- binaries. You need gcc 2.3.3 or later. You should not use
- GNU as or GNU ld. Make sure you run just-fixinc if you use
- a binary distribution. Better is to get a binary version and
- use that to bootstrap gcc from source.
-
- [...]
-
- When you install gcc, don't make the mistake of installing
- GNU binutils or GNU libc, they are not as capable as their
- counterparts you get with Solaris 2.x.
-
-6.9) I can't get perl 4.036 to compile or run.
-
- Run Configure, and use the solaris_2_0 hints, *don't* use
- the solaris_2_1 hints and don't use the config.sh you may
- already have. First you must make sure Configure and make
- don't find /usr/ucb/cc. (It must use gcc or the native C
- compiler: /opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc)
-
- Some questions need a special answer.
-
- Are your system (especially dbm) libraries compiled with gcc? [y] y
-
- yes: gcc 2.3.3 or later uses the standard calling
- conventions, same as Sun's C.
