Now, as it happens, sometimes CC running in AFS (a distributed
filesystem) have problem with the locking mechanism for this file
and hang indefinitely saying:
SunWS_cache: Information: Database is locked, waiting....
It's not just AFS. It also occurs with NFS.
Indefinitely hanging programs aren't entirely uncommon, so perhaps
there is proven method of handling this.
Not that I know of. You just have to get a working compiler.
"configure" prefers gcc to CC, and gcc is shipped as part of Solaris 8,
so perhaps that will fix your problem.
