I agree with you. As a matter of fact, I use Sablotron on a
Solaris box and I had to provide explicit flags to Makefile in
order to build the binaries and libraries:

  ./configure
  make CC=gcc LINKEROPT_SONAME=-h

That's because we're using GCC with Solaris ld working together and
Solaris ld doesn't like "-soname" flag very much ;) Shouldn't the
configure step decide whether to use "-soname" or "-h"?

Definitely, IMHO the best approach is autoconf+automake+libtool.

Best,
Alex
