Interesting compile error under Sol8

Hi all,

Definately a pg newbie, but here goes:

I'm trying to get pg running under Solaris 8 for x86 (back-end storage
for data for a web-site) and keep getting an error while compiling.

I've tried compiling 7.1.3 and 7.1.2 and get the same error, so it's
obviously something specific to my machine (SunOS solaris 5.8
Generic_108529-09 i86pc i386 i86pc).

Running Configure is fine, but then when running make, I eventually get
the following as it compiles float.c, and then it exits. Any ideas?

gcc  -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations
-I../../../../src/include   -c -o datetime.o datetime.c
gcc  -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations
-I../../../../src/include   -c -o datum.o datum.c
gcc  -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations
-I../../../../src/include   -c -o float.o float.c
