Hi Sam,
I hope that requiring GNU ld is a temporary feature of courier-authlib.
The GNU loader has traditionally been buggy on solaris-sparc
and requiring it may jeopardize the portability of Courier.

It is only the line that builds libcourierauthcommon.la that fails.
I rewrote that command line by hands replacing
"-Wl,--whole-archive" with "-Wl,-z -Wl,allextract", and
"-Wl,--no-whole-archive" with "-Wl,-z -Wl,defaultextract".
Re-issuing make completed w/o errors.

I guess one would similarly need +forceload on HPUX et cetera. Why?
That's a job for libtool, as (not much extensively) exemplified in
http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/html_node/Libtool-Convenience-Libraries.html
Doesn't that work?

Happy 2005 to all!
Ale
