RE: [ADMIN] Trying to build 6.3.2 w/o success... gcc errors

Bruce / whoever,

 Good, the templates are now up-to-date.  Are there other things missing
from the templates other than the gcc line?  This is what is in
sparc_solaris-gcc:

$ more template/spa*gcc
CC:gcc
AROPT:crs
CFLAGS:
SHARED_LIB:-fPIC
ALL:
SRCH_INC:
SRCH_LIB:
USE_LOCALE:no
DLSUFFIX:.so
YFLAGS:-d
YACC

When I run configure, the following results.  At this point, I'm at a loss
of
which direction to proceed.

$ ./configure --with-template=sparc_solaris-gcc
loading cache ./config.cache
checking host system type... sparc-sun-solaris2.5.1
checking echo setting...
checking setting template to... template/sparc_solaris-gcc
checking setting USE_LOCALE... disabled
checking setting CYR_RECODE... disabled
checking setting DEF_PGPORT... 5432
checking setting USE_TCL... disabled
checking setting USE_PERL... disabled
checking setting ASSERT CHECKING... disabled
checking for gcc... (cached) cc
checking whether the C compiler (cc  ) works... no
configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler cannot
create executables.

    This was a bug in 6.3.2, and is fixed in 6.4 beta.  You have to
modify
    the template files directly for solaris.
