Ah, you're right; I didn't catch that. The documentation for the server says Solaris 8, but uname -a says "SunOS hpl 5.9 Generic_122300-54 sun4u sparc SUNW,UltraAX-i2". I'd trust uname, so that makes this Solaris 9.

Compiling as described above appears to go down in flames:

And, this is the same source tree that just worked a minute ago, when I used configure/make/make install. I then copied the entire source folder, with the modified config.mak file, to my laptop running Snow Leopard, modified the variables in the config.mak file to match the system, and it compiled and installed just fine. So, this server seems to have a problem with not running the configure script first.
