The Solaris 10 server here isn't set up to build git. git/Makefile isn't compatible with /usr/ccs/bin/make. Is it desired to have a Makefile that's portable to the Sun tools? I was going to test Jeff's patch, but I probably won't install GNU make on this machine unless I find I more compelling need to build git on Solaris. If it would help folks out, I'd be willing to try to create a Makefile patch that works with the Sun tools, but I don't currently have a Linux machine that I can easily use to verify compatibility.
