Thanks for this Sam.

If this is the case, can someone advise me what my alternatives are? I have
installed FAM, but I can't tell if it's being picked up by the configure
script or not. Does FAM replace the broken filesystem semantics?

Essentially, I need shared folders, and I don't have any choice about
running under Solaris. I would really like to use courier... what are my
options?
