I am trying to compile darcs on Solaris 10 Intel, and have partially

hack around a compile time error and also 'make test' fails.
I would like to know if someone knows how to avoid the hack I use, and
why the test suite fails and maybe also a way to fix the failures.

I'm no expert, but it looks like the Solaris shell doesn't like the
syntax that the darcs tests are using. I think that pure Bourne shell
doesn't allow assignment in an export statement. This could be fixed
by running the tests with Bash or submitting a patch that separates
the export statement from the assignment statements.
