Surely the configure script created more output than that? So, at what point did this happen, and could you insert `set -x'/`set +x' well above resp. below that and rerun, and show output (packed if large)? > > $ autoconf --version > > autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.59 Could you point us to the configure.ac in question (exact version, I guess I do know which one in general you're talking about)? Also, please show `./config.guess', thanks -- SunOS is too vague for me.
