is.

I'm having problems compiling binutils on Solaris 8.  The configure
works fine, but the make fails like this:

[root@unknown binutils-2.9.1]# make
make[1]: Entering directory `/root/binutils-2.9.1/libiberty'
gcc -c -g -O2 -I. -I./../include -DHAVE_SYSCONF ./dummy.c 2>/dev/null
make[1]: *** [dummy.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/binutils-2.9.1/libiberty'
make: *** [all-libiberty] Error 2

[root@unknown binutils-2.9.1]# cd libiberty/
[root@unknown libiberty]# gcc -c -g -O2 -I. -I./../include
-DHAVE_SYSCONF ./dummy.c
In file included from dummy.c:46:
functions.def: In function `main':
functions.def:38: too few arguments to function `strstr'

[root@unknown libiberty]#


Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?  I think it might be an issue with the
standard libs, but I can't get glibc to compile because it claims no
one's ported it to this particular system.  (Is there a way around that
as well??  I'd love to get glibc onto this thing.  I think it'd solve a
lot of other problems I've been having.)

Thanks

Stu
