Ok.. Got past the last part -- I did notice the steps needed to build
the configure script.. I did find a few of my tools (automake,libtool)
were out of date..
By the way.. The tool prerequisites listed on the site below are not
quite right anymore...
http://smalltalk.gnu.org/download/cvs
The libtool reference for libtool-2.2 or later being sufficient is not
right.. I had 2.2.6 installed (not the 'a' or 'b' subversions) and
it did not work properly with regards to AC_PROG_LIBTOOL.. Once I moved
up to the latest version (2.4.2) that problem went away and the
configure
script was created w/o issue..
I'm still building the rest of the s/w to see if my exception issue is
still present or not..
Doh.. Ok.. Just ran across this after running the configure script :
Platform environment:
checking whether the host supports __sync_fetch_and_add... no
configure: error: Synchronization primitives not found, please use a
newer compiler.
Is this actually required? Is there a way around it? I'm using
gcc-4.1.0
and found a note indicating that it was provided in gcc-4.1 but it
seems like
a feature specific to Intel hardware perhaps -- not Solaris/Sparc..
