You need to install a C++ compiler, such as gcc (available at
ftp://ftp.sunfreeware.com/pub/freeware/sparc/8/gcc-2.95.3-sol8-sparc-local.gz),
and you will very possibly need to use the GNU make package (you can try
to add /usr/ccs/bin to your path and use the Solaris make, but I don't
know if it will work). A package for GNU make is available at
ftp://ftp.sunfreeware.com/pub/freeware/sparc/8/make-3.79.1-sol8-sparc-local.gz.
Make sure to put /usr/local/bin into your path after installing these and
before running configure again (if you are going to try to use the Solaris
make, put /usr/local/bin BEFORE /usr/ccs/bin in your path so you will use
the GNU make if you have to install it in the end without changing your
path).
Good luck.
