[Expat-bugs] RE: Solaris make error

[John.Hockaday@ga.gov.au]

Hi,

I noticed that there was a thread about compiling expat on the Solaris
2.8 platform in September 2002.  

I have been able to compile expat-1.95.5.tar.gz on a Solaris 2.8 UNIX
platform using the following gcc setup:

"gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-solaris2.8/3.2/specs
Configured with: ../configure --with-as=/usr/ccs/bin/as
--with-ld=/usr/ccs/bin/ld --disable-nls
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.2"

but .... when I run "make check" I get the following output:

Could this indicate that I am having troubles compiling expat-1.95.5
because of my gcc setup or is there something else that I am missing?
If so, what version of gcc should I be using and should I be using GNU
"as" and "ld"?

Thanks in advance for any help that anyone can provide me.
