On Solaris 2.6...

Hello,

I just want to share my experience compiling PostgreSQL...

PostgreSQL version:  6.5 (from CVS ~5 hours ago)
Operating system:    Solaris 2.6
Machine:             SPARC Ultra1 143MHz 64MB
gcc:                 2.8.1
flex:                2.5.4
bison:               1.25

* I've been getting compiler errors with lex and yacc so I replaced
  them with flex and bison, respectively.  GNU tools were downloaded
  from http://sunfreeware.com/.
