G'day Tilghman,

Thanks for that thread. I guess a few other things broke because of the
change and the consuming application then needs to be a little smarter like
you said (and suggested by darrenr) to detect whether you're on OSOL or
Solaris. Does that mean I should check this same thing out on Solaris 10 as
well and see what happens? I am so lost with the Solaris build environment
as (and I whinged about this earlier too) there is no good way of obtaining
the standard Solaris packages and dependancies and everything just goes all
over the place and then one is left scurrying around to find where the damn
library needs to be for it to compile.

Anyway, I will open an issue and reference this thread and we'll go from
there.

BTW, THANK YOU for taking note of this and trying to help. You guys will
have bottomless beer pitchers paid for if you guys help me get this working
and are ever in the NY area :)

Cheers,
\R
