Using
* Solaris 10 update 7 on SPARC
* sage-4.1.2.alpha2
* Sun Studio 12.1
* An updated configure script to allow the Sun compiler to be used
(#7021)
CC was set to the Sun C compler, and CXX to the Sun C++ compiler. The
singular configure script does not believe the Sun C++ compiler can create
executables. This is the same sort of error as seen in quaddouble-2.2.p9
#7030.
This time the problem is easy to diagnose. The test is used adds the
option -fPIC when trying to test the C++ compiler. But -fPIC is a GNU-
specific option - it is not acceptable to the Sun C++ compiler. Instead
-xcode=pic32, -KPIC or -PIC would work, but not -fPIC.
It's clearly dumb to send a GNU specific option to test a C++ compiler
unless you are 100% sure the C++ compiler is the GNU C++ compiler.
