Hi Chris,
We do not have access anymore to a Solaris86 machine since BNL have
stopped
supporting this platform.
The Makefile for Solaris or Solarisegcs should work.
This platform was difficult to support; a lot of compiler crashes. I had
to compile several classes in noopt mode to avoid the compiler crash.
This was with the native Sun compiler. May be the latest versions are
better
now?
