When we started with the Solaris 64 bit builds, you needed to
set an environment variable "WYOMING_TOOLS" to point to a linker
capable of building 64 bit binaries. Later you could just point it
to the installed tools.
Other dependencies can/should be handled in a similar fashion,
though one could easily find oneself in a catch-22:
to build on, you need libxml
to build libxml, you'd want to build it against the
libraries/headers of the OpenSolaris build you want to use
it on
