I am using the gcc 3.4.6 compiler. With all of the needed packages
for this config run, I have included the following elements in a script:
#
./configure --with-openssl --with-libxml --with-libxslt
--with-libraries=/usr/local/ssl/lib:/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2/lib
--with-includes=/usr/local/ssl/include:/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2/include
All of the necessary elements came via pkgadd commands with packages
from sunfreeware.com. That site notes the use of gcc 3.4.6 and based
upon a previous debacle with Perl/Apache/MySQL where a mixture of gcc
compiled packages were included in the SUNWspro compiler
configuration and make processes, I don't feel like going through the
inflicted pain of incompatible address spacing with the shared
objects modules. I am aware of the use of the Sun compiler because I
started using it on Solaris 2.6 in 1994.
I have attempted to decipher the config.log, but the messaging in
there leaves me scratching my head because of what is left out. I am
well aware of the shortcomings of make in terms of the messages that
come out, but simple things such as the actual test being run are
obscured at best.

Description: fseeko test failure in configure script
Details:
It does not matter what parameters I do or do not provide on the configure
step, I get the same failure every time:
checking for fseeko... (cached) yes
checking test program... failed
configure: error:
Could not execute a simple test program. This may be a problem related to
locating shared libraries. Check the file 'config.log' for the exact
reason.
I have even attempted to re-order the configure.in file to no avail. I
wanted a version with ssl support (sunfreeware.com does not provide a built
version with the ssl support), but this jacked up problem with fseeko is
pushing me to use MySQL because I have been successful in configuring,
making, and installing a version with ssl support. Encryption is critical
in my environment.
what compiler/tool stack are you using? what additional libraries?
for sparc, I'd highly recommend using Sun Studio, aka SUNWspro,
available from sun for free nowdays (installs to /opt/SUNWspro/...,
so put that bin in your path before any other compilers)
