The above message contained the following:

Hmm...  It seems that the "configure" script's PATH isn't the same as
the PATH of your user-shell.  This is odd and I don't know what could
cause this.

Let's try explicity telling the "configure" script which C and C++
compilers to use. Please try the following:

    1.  Go to the top-level source directory.

    2.  Perform steps 3 through 5, which are described near the end of
        the file "INSTALL.html".

    3.  Ensure that the following environment variables have the
        indicated values:

            Environment Variable                Value
            --------------------                -----
            CC                                  /gad_opt/SUNWspro/bin/c89
            CXX                                 /gad_opt/SUNWspro/bin/CC

        How this is done depends on your user-shell:

            Standard Shells (e.g., sh, bash, ksh):

                export CC=/gad_opt/SUNWspro/bin/c89

            csh-like Shells (e.g., csh, tcsh):

                setenv CC /gad_opt/SUNWspro/bin/c89

    2.  Perform steps 6 through 9, which are described near the end of
        the file "INSTALL.html".

Please tell me what you discover.

My senior year of high school (1968-1969) was spent at the International
College of Beirut, Lebanon because my father managed the Ahmadi refinery
in southern Kuwait (where I also spent a lot of time).

Life is amazing.

If I may ask, what brings a hot-and-dry person like yourself to the land
of overcast, rain, and bagpipes (which, oddly enough, I play)?
