Comment(by jdemeyer):

 I found out what prevents PARI/GP from compiling on Solaris.  The problem
 is that {{{/bin/sh}}} from Solaris doesn't know about {{{test -e
 <filename>}}}.
 So there are two solutions:

 '''Solution 1''': In {{{Configure}}}, replace
 {{{
 #! /bin/sh
 }}}
 by
 {{{
 #!/usr/bin/env bash
 }}}

 '''Solution 2''': In {{{config/Makefile.SH}}}, replace all occurances of
 {{{
 test -e
 }}}
 by
 {{{
 test -f
 }}}

 Using either of these solutions makes PARI/GP compile.

 Since Sage assumes the existence of {{{bash}}}, we might as well apply the
 first solution anyway.  I will report this upstream.
