Joerg,

Thanks for you reply. I have to say that I was expecting a reply anymore. 
Looking on the internet I found an article that simply suggested adding the 
prototype for the sleep function where the compiler was complaining. I did it 
and it compiled fine. And it seems to work.

Although I did mess with the source code, I didn't before. I said that I change 
the makefile and I did, but before that I tried to add the -DHAVE_TERMSIO_H 
option to configure. I had the same results, that's when I tried and changed 
that specific makefile only.

Anywway, as I said I managed to build it and it seems to work. We're having 
some issues on upgrading to Solaris 8, that's why we still have Solaris 6. I 
hope the pre-build package for Solaris 8 will work without any intervention. 
But if it won't and I'll need to build it I'll remember the issue you told me 
about.

Thanks for you help
Giulio
