Thanks for the suggestions, two responses follow:

The path on Suns can be rather sparse.  I have tried explicitily
setting the path on my system, but it makes no difference.  If a
program is missing from the path, I would also expect a clearer error
message.  If I try to run "foobar" for instance, I get "foobar: not
found" as an error.  And that is not the error mentioned.

Just what is "boot_console" anyway?  I poked around and there is a file
named "boot_console under godi-tools-boot/ which identifies itself as a

  "executable 
/home/gerd/pub/godi-bootstrap/godi-tools/trunk/console-src/console/./boot_console.runtime
 script"

Which again doesn't make sense to me, as /home/gerd is something on the
development machine, I would assume?  it certainly isn't on my Sun!

Well I discovered that /usr/local is actually a symlink, so I tried
redoing the bootstrap with the actual path:

    ./bootstrap --prefix /gaul/local/godi

With the exact same error.

Anyone else have some suggestions?

I have previously built this on a Fedora 8 Linux box and that did not
have any of these errors, so I would trust that the package itself is
fine.
