Hello All,

Apologies for accidentally sending this to the “general questions list”, meant to send it here.

I have a need to compile Coreutils for Solaris 8…  I am using Sun Studio 11 (cc: Sun C 5.8 Patch 121015-07 2009/04/22) to try and compile the source and I am getting the following error:

bash-2.03$ make

Any help would be much appreciated.
