Hi Alan, you might want to try setting the CFLAGS variable, as follows: $ CFLAGS="-I/opt/csw/include" and then invoking configure. Alternatively, my experience with configure scripts is that they frequently want to see "/opt/csw" rather than "/opt/csw/include" since the configure script will be trying to execute a test program that depends on a library in (in this case) "/opt/csw/lib" rather than "/opt/csw/include/lib".
