Solaris 8(Intel) Build

   I would like to put on record that Source Navigator builds fine on
   Solaris8/Intel, It does demand using the GNU tar on the source package
   AND gmake (the Solaris make had problems with one of the makefiles).
   I'm now rather happy & thanks to Ben & Eric for their responses.

Building a tar file that can be unpacked with older Unix tar programs is a
simple matter of packaging.  I assume this didn't happen -- Syd?

As for the make problem -- this should not happen, either.  S-N uses
Automake, which generates portable Makefiles.  Can you post the error that
you got so that we can fix such problems?

Cheers, Ben
